??Looking back on the insightful discussions SOLES has had these last two weeks?? First, SOLES had a chance to table at the Spartan Showcase, where we had the chance to meet new people and share our accomplishments from the entire year. ?? Then, SOLES engaged in an interactive game with San Jose High School, featuring our upcoming SE co-chairs. Together, we discussed SOLES and SE initiatives, fostering meaningful connections and conversations. ?? Last, SOLES was invited to attend a special event organized by San José State University. Adriana Poo, the Health Sciences Librarian, reached out to us with an exclusive campus tour and student panel for the AVID Program at Columbia Middle School in Sunnyvale, CA. This event is intended to encourage middle school students, particularly those from the Latino community, to seek higher education. We've been asked to offer our experiences and thoughts, acting as role models and mentors for these young scholars. ???? #SOLES #SHPE #Inspire #BuildingOurFuture #SJSU #SPARTANS

In a world that seems hell bent on enabling the architecture of war, I am so thankful to those investing in peace, in the skills and spaces that lead us away from hate, misinformation, segregation and polarisation and back towards each other. These are important programs universities are developing to create bridges across difference and empower people to manage conflict in ways that help them heal. We need so many more of these programs in civil society, and in our workplaces. “Apprehension is a crucial barrier to mitigate. Students are afraid to put themselves in uncomfortable situations… But they are also pretty curious about each other. There is a large desire for connection. It’s just a matter of them feeling comfortable to do it. It’s about rewarding their innate curiosity…. The most common theme I see is that students talk about how they were afraid to interact with that other culture, but once they interact they unequivocally love it.” This is the hopeful work of 2025! When others go to war, we have a choice to go to peace instead.

Thrilled to share my new publication co-authored with colleagues, Melissa Whatley and Kristin Labs, Ed.D. We focused on the academic success outcomes of low-income students who have opportunities to engage in virtual international exchanges. Findings support increasing efforts to provide these global opportunities to all students.
I'm pleased to share my latest publication with co-authors Kristin Labs, Ed.D. and Dawn Wood, PhD! In this piece, we explore virtual international exchange programs and their relationship with academic success outcomes among limited-income community college students. Our results suggest that students gain academically from participating in virtual exchange programs, but we also found significant equity gaps in who participates in these programs. https://lnkd.in/eHB7ErS7
