Announcement: STAnDD meeting

“Supporting the Advancement of Diversity in Design (STAnDD) is having a kick-off meeting! The event will be held in Lawrence Hall, Room 278, this Friday (the 28th) at noon!

We will talk about what the club does, solidify leadership roles, and start planning for the year to come. Our horizontal leadership allows all members to have a direct impact on topics we discuss and speakers we invite. All design disciplines are encouraged to come!

Our mission is to support the advancement of minorities in design and to create engaging conversations about equity in the field and in our work. We are dedicated to creating a culture of inclusion by making current disparities understood and by being a part of a larger conversation about equity in the fields of architecture and design. We are also committed to the professional development of design students by providing all students access to conferences, events, and other opportunities that will prepare them for their future careers.

If any of this sounds interesting, or you want to hear more about the club, please stop by the meeting or email us at standduo@gmail.com
