Keynote Speaker
Rachael Denhollder
Rachael Denhollander is an attorney, author, advocate, and educator who is听recognized as a leading voice on the topic of sexual abuse. Possessing a听unique blend of professional skills, personal experiences, and dynamic听communication style, she is a sought- after media commentator, speaker,听and consultant. Her grasp of legal issues, corporate ethics, effective听leadership strategies, and investigative practices are coupled with a trauma-听informed, deeply compassionate understanding of the realities facing survivors of sexual abuse and their path toward healing. Bridging the gap听between survivors and the society and institutions that may have failed听them, Denhollander forces audiences to ask the question, 鈥淲hat is a girl or听boy worth?鈥 while equipping them with the tools to answer, 鈥淓verything.鈥澨齊achael Denhollander became known internationally in 2016 as the听first听woman to pursue criminal charges and speak publicly against USA听Gymnastics鈥 team doctor Larry Nassar, one of the most prolific sexual听abusers in recorded history. As a result of her activism, over 300 women鈥斕齣ncluding numerous Olympic medalists 鈥 came forward as survivors of听Nassar鈥檚 abuse, eventually leading to his life imprisonment. Her courageous听tenacity and ongoing advocacy helped trigger a complete upheaval at both听USA Gymnastics and Michigan State University, where former executives听and high- ranking officials face numerous criminal charges for their听complicity in covering up Nassar鈥檚 abuse and lying about what they knew.

Workshops
2024 Workshops
In this workshop, Yvonne Castaneda takes participants on a personal journey that exposes the harsh realities of imposter syndrome and how feeling disconnected from a sense of purpose can take a toll on our mental, emotional and physical health.
Restorative Justice (RJ) initiatives are a growing trend in higher education settings and beyond. In this workshop we will discuss the foundational concepts of RJ and the role it plays in an educational setting. Together, we will explore the range of implications of these practices and their differentiation from other traditional processes.
This workshop will review the history of voluntary female body hair removal within the context of racism, sexism and classism. Now normalized for over 100 years, the workshop will further highlight the negative health effects of voluntary body hair removal, specifically genital hair removal.
Following what is meant to be in this life, what matters, and who was there along the way
An overview of some of the latest economics and psychology research on how job seekers' gender correlates with their job search behavior. We'll discuss how these differences contribute to gender inequality in the labor market, and hopefully come away with helpful insights for undergraduates at any stage of the job or internship search process.
In this workshop, Maria will share her journey with sustainability and creating a business. As the founder of Uvida, md传媒国产剧鈥檚 first zero waste store, her workshop will focus on how to create something unique from the ground up and navigate setbacks.听
