Students from BSU’s Campus Activities Board helped honor Women’s History Month by hosting a Women in the Workforce Panel in Hagg-Sauer Hall on March 28.
Seven women in leadership, education and community advocacy roles spoke about their educational journeys, careers and provided advice to students during a question-and-answer session at the end of the event.
