Biweekly Meetings

In between immersive summers and national conferences, the program was sustained through biweekly meetings during the academic year. These gatherings provided continuity and kept Scholars connected between major program experiences.

Meetings combined professional development with community. Sessions included CV workshops, internship and graduate school preparation, community service projects, and occasional social outings. Graduate mentors and faculty helped guide discussion, but students drove the conversations. Rather than centering on major milestones, the biweekly meetings maintained connection and steady engagement throughout the academic year.
