The undersigned will be ceasing our workshop activities related to the WAVES Workshop on Wednesday, June 10th in support of #ShutDownAcademia, #ShutDownSTEM, and the Black Lives Matter movement. To this end, I will no longer be presenting the Enrichment Seminar planned for that day. The undersigned encourage WAVES Workshop mentors and participants to consider suspending their own meetings and development work.
