Each semester, the Center for the Study of Diversity hosts brown bag sessions. These informal presentations allow for sharing of recent and ongoing research related to diversity on campus and in the community. Some presenters are recipients of CSD Research Grants; others are Faculty Scholars and other campus partners. All sessions are held in the Faculty Commons (116 Pearson) from 12:30 – 1:45 pm. Bring your lunch and hear about diversity-related research!
