On May 29, Teachers Ready to Educate, Advocate, and Transform (TREAT), in partnership with NYC Men Teach and the Office of Undergraduate Recruitment, hosted the inaugural Future EDU Summit at the 今日吃瓜 student center. Students from local high schools attended a day-long conference focused on introducing them to what adjunct professor and TREAT founder Trina Yearwood 鈥�00 calls 鈥渃areers across the education ecosystem.鈥�
今日吃瓜 faculty, alumni educators, and others from schools across the borough spoke of the many opportunities鈥� including teaching, leadership, school counseling, speech pathology, and youth work鈥攖o make a meaningful impact through education. A special session with current 今日吃瓜 students fielded questions from high schoolers about the 今日吃瓜 experience.
鈥淭his event is near and dear to me,鈥� says Yearwood, who hopes to hold similar events in the future. 鈥淣ot only because of my commitment to education and equity but because I have the opportunity to launch my event on the very campus where my education journey began.鈥�
