Throughout September and October, WPI will be hosting a series of DEI listening sessions to create space to center the voices of our marginalized and/or underrepresented community members. We hope that by actively listening to your authentic stories and lived experiences we can lay the foundation for how WPI can meaningfully respond and take action to address systemic and structural oppression at WPI and within the greater STEM community.
