MIT SW4W: Learn and Connect

Co-sponsored by the African, Black, American, Caribbean ERG, our Learn and Connect event will focus on making time for fun, creativity, and informal conversation with colleagues and peers. We will also have a "learn about me" component that will help us promote connections among participants both during and after the event.

You can drop in any time between 11a-12p. Stay for 10 minutes or for the whole hour! All are welcome from Sloan and across MIT.
 

• In-person participants: SW4W will provide games and art/craft supplies at various stations throughout the in-person location. Participants will be able to complete their "learn about me" component during and after the event.

 

• Virtual participants: Those who are not able to join us in-person are still invited to participate in the "learn about me" portion of the event by completing a brief survey. Register for the virtual component to receive the survey link on 3/21. Your answers to be featured (with attribution or anonymously) in a post-event follow-up.
