Panelists were Takeelia Garrett, student ombuds; Samhita Rhodes, professor of engineering and director of the engineering graduate program; Lisa Surman, executive assistant, Office of the Provost; and Kara Van Dam, vice provost for Graduate and Lifetime Learning. Women's Commission member Katelyn Hanley Semelbauer, director of stewardship and donor relations, served as moderator.
