On Saturday, March 4th, 2018, NE GWiSE hosted its Inaugural Spring to Action event at Tufts University School of Medicine. Spring to Action is an annual series focused on advocacy and policy building around a specific issue of importance to the graduate student community. This year, the focus was on sexual harassment, with the event title “Breaking the silence, building a collective: A forum on sexual harassment in higher education.” #SpringtoAction18

We are excited to announce the full schedule for Saturday’s Spring to Action: Breaking the Silence, Building a Collective. This forum on sexual harassment will feature the keynote speaker Dr. Leena Akhtar, a Title IX/Human resources panel, and focused breakout sessions. To view the full speaker list, see below.
