2022 Tate Conference and Awards Ceremony Reflection

The 2022 John Tate Professional Development Conference and Awards Ceremony took place virtually on March 3rd and 4th, 2022. The Tate Planning Committee this year really wanted to prioritize diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility, in addition to advisor wellbeing and connections with colleagues.

During the welcome session, opening remarks were provided by Alexander Hines, Director of Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion, College of Liberal Arts. The Keynote Speaker was Rev. Sam Offer, Washington Consulting Group, who focused his conversation on the importance of remembering context when engaging across difference. Rev. Offer also led an engagement activity that sparked many conversations around spaces, identity, context, and more. Along with the return of Tate Talks and Poster Presentations, the Tate Conference had incredibly insightful conversation and dynamic presentations.

We also celebrated at the conference honoring the 35th class of John Tate Award recipients; and, in addition, the 2022 AAN Award Winners were also recognized.
