“Talk to me about…” A brand new initiative for our Net Impact chapter, Connecting Carlson, used this provocative phrase to promote honest conversation, understanding, and inclusiveness in the Carlson community. Connecting Carlson consisted of a week-long social media campaign to bring awareness about the diversity in Carlson that is seldom discussed. This campaign included live events in the Carlson building and a Facebook page that posted videos of students and professors each day. The page drew much attention, ultimately acquiring 594 page likes. Take a look at the Facebook page here.

This initiative, in partnership with B-Board, plans to continue into the spring semester. There will be several panel-style discussions on different topics such as gender, religion, and more, that are not typically discussed in Carlson.
