Download iCal FileMany of UIC’s students are parents but are invisible to the rest of the campus community. Join us for a conversation with Dr. Katrina Washington, a recent UIC graduate, to learn about her journey as a student-parent. The conversation will address a variety of areas: competing responsibilities of being a parent and a student, the obstacles and stigmas attached to becoming a parent while enrolled in university, and the ways she negotiated all of these to realize her goals and dreams. Come to learn; leave inspired and ready to make change.
