The Black Professionals and Leaders Dinner is meant to bridge the gap between black undergraduate students and working professionals, providing the space and opportunity for students to engage with working professionals who look like them, hear their stories and better understand the journey from college to professional life.

Working professionals are invited to sit at the table, break bread, and knowledge share with students, as well as participate in a panel discussion on a wide-range of topics affecting students of color and working professionals. Students will also be able to have a complimentary professional head shot picture taken during the Networking Happy Hour.
