No Neutral Spaces: Tech, Power, and You
Whether you are a student, faculty, or staff member, technology is deeply enmeshed in our lives.

Join Dr. Sumun Pendakur, former Chief Learning Officer at the USC Race and Equity Center, for an interactive talk about how you can make an impact on your sphere of influence when it comes to the landscape of tech around you.
