This past weekend was our annual Leadership Immersion Weekend for our GSBA Scholars. Due to lingering concerns about COVID-19, we opted to do it virtually again this year.
Seeing our scholars come together and host sessions, conduct interviews, ask important questions and share their knowledge and view of the world, makes me feel confident that our world is in good hands with our future leaders!
Our sessions this year included:
- Zine-Making in Queer History with Whit Fraleigh
- Your Financial Journey – Credit Health with Rocky Fong
- Leadership Selfie Collage with GSBA Scholar Alum Tiffany-Ashton Gatsby
- The Power of Storytelling Through Burlesque with Mx. Pucks A’Plenty
- Are Side Hustles Worth It? with US Bank Goals Coaches Tamara Clark and Marlie Love
- Are You Financially Fit? With US Bank Goals Coaches Tiffany Fritchman and Kacey Lorenzen
