Optional pre-read: Redefining merit through new routines: Holistic admissions policy implementation in graduate education by Julie Posselt, Deborah Southern, Theresa Hernandez, Steve Desir, Fatima Alleyne, and Casey Miller

This "community jam session" is intended to create space for brainstorming and sharing ways to elicit applicants' lived experiences and potential to contribute to your mission-driven pursuit of diversity and inclusion. 

Each session begins with a brief presentation of principles and/or research evidence about equitable, lawful use of these tools. Followed by a 30-40-minute breakout session where attendees can brainstorm with colleagues from around the country. Breakout rooms will be by discipline, recognizing that there are field-specific ways that programs engage with applicants. Finally, the sessions end with a 15-20 minute discussion in a large-group format, led by members of the EGE leadership team and steering committee.
