About the Workplace Equity Summit

Many diverse people illustration

We strive to promote social mobility by strengthening students’ cultural capital so they can thrive in the global workforce.

Every year, MSU Denver’s Classroom to Career Hub (C2Hub) invites Auraria Campus students, staff, faculty and industry or community partners to join us for the Workplace Equity Summit (WES). This one-day event is an opportunity for the Auraria Campus community to network with one another and learn from DEI professionals about workplace equity practices.

History

Spring 2023 marked the 10th year of the Workplace Equity Summit (WES). Previously known as the Diversity Networking Event, WES was created by MSU Denver, University of Colorado Denver, and Community College of Denver staff with the intention of forging meaningful connections between students with marginalized identities and industry professionals.
