Looking to network with LGBTQIA+ and allied peers and professionals across the industries? 🏳️‍🌈Research shows that employees who are authentically themselves at work are happier and more productive, but what do you do when you don’t know if it’s strategic (or safe) to be yourself?🏳️‍⚧️ At Queer Career, we’ll discuss all of this and more.

Come prepared to network and ask questions! A representative from Macaulay’s Office of Career Development will also discuss how they support students deciding on career paths and how they prepare them to be successful in the workplace while keeping their core identities intact.After the panel, everyone will be encouraged to participate in a structured networking activity.
