The Mosaic Center's Inspirational Talks series invites speakers each semester from all
over the country to discuss personal experiences relating to their
identity, research and/or global issues that impact diversity and
inclusion. PAWTalks is an interactive, cultural sharing experience by
highlighting the richness of the various cultures through speakers from
around the country representing diverse backgrounds.
This

all of us at our intersections.
