Summary

Hey lady, this week Dr. Antar Tichavakunda, Assistant Professor of Education at the University of California Santa Barbara and author of Black Campus Life: The Worlds Black Students Make at Historically White Institution, joins Terri and Dr. Dom and discusses the shifts that we all can make when preparing the younger generations for their next steps in life. Research has shown that early intervention and creating networks for support are critical in the first two years of post-secondary education. But, those interventions and support networks don’t just start and stop with the educators. Every person in a young scholar’s life plays a part in keeping the student engaged all the way through graduation. Are you curious about the ways you can support a young scholar – without going into your wallet – so they feel uplifted during their journey? Tune in today for some great conversation and great insight from Dr. Tichavakunda.

Quote of the Day: “When you do the common things in life in an uncommon way, you will command the attention of the world.”
– George Washington Carver
