BEARtalks & Brown Bag Lunches

Brown Bag Lunch Affinity Series

The Brown Bag Lunch Affinity Series seeks to promote a community of interest among staff members from historically underrepresented groups (HUGs). We strive to build a supportive and affirming space for HUG staff at all levels without the weight of being an educator for their community,and to strengthen our professional and social relationships between diverse employees, the university, and the outside community.

BEARtalks

The Brown Education and Awareness Roundtable Talks (BEARtalks) provide an educational space for all Brown staff members to develop their awareness and knowledge with diversity and equity, and to engage staff in discussions about approaches toward an inclusive work environment for the Brown community. BEARtalks hope to build a forum of discussion that combines both scholarly literature with current events, optimistically connecting theory with practice.
