Welcoming New Trainees
Social events welcome new trainees and students to our department.
The goal of this subcommittee is to establish and maintain programming events intended to promote a welcoming and inclusive workplace that celebrates diversity. We will develop ways to bring together members of the departmental community to enhance a sense of belonging and host events designed to educate and promote discussion within our department on issues related to race, gender, and mental health.
We sponsor events throughout the year and also prepare information for new members of our community such as our on-boarding document that welcomes new trainees to our department.
Some of our other activities are highlighted below.
