Equity & Mentoring Speaker Series

The Commission on the Status of Women is proud to present our speaker series, led by engaging and informative experts across Southern Arizona. Speakers will answer any of the following questions:

  • What work are you doing on campus around mentoring and equity?
  • Can you share how your research helps women at the university?
  • Can you provide any insight related to mentoring across differences, with concerns to gender, and/or minoritized identities?

Upcoming Speakers

Our next series will be held Spring 2027 - please email csw@arizona.edu if you would like to present or suggest a speaker.
