This week, the Southwestern Black Student Leadership Conference will host their 29th annual conference, January 19-22. The theme of this year's program is "Activating the Vision."

Founded in 1988, the Southwestern Black Student Leadership Conference began as a way to offer specific professional development opportunities to Black students attending Texas regional universities. Since its inception, interest in the annual conference has grown steadily and registrants now regularly attend from beyond the Lone Star State's borders. Now the three-day event draws around 600 students from universities across the United States and other nations, such as the West Indies.




This year's conference includes Thursday's opening ceremony, Friday's breakfast with a featured speaker, a career and vendor fair, and a closing banquet with a keynote speaker. In addition, participants can attend workshops covering a variety of topics, including setting personal goals, taking an active leadership role, networking, etiquette, creating a resume, financial planning and preparing for graduate school. Special sessions also are planned for higher education advisors who work with underrepresented student groups.

Thank you for sharing.

It seems the group could benefit from more male participants, or am I missing something?
