Black in Academia

Black in Academia, offered in partnership with SEAS and the Harvard Black Graduate Student Alliance (BGSA) is an event dedicated to amplifying voices of Black scholars to share their research, career story, and offer advice to students interested in pursuing opportunities in academia.
