Student-Athlete Development Hosts SOAR Diversity & Inclusion Seminar

CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. - On Sunday, Nov. 3, Boston College Student-Athlete Development hosted the SOAR Diversity & Inclusion Seminar.

More than 40 student-athletes came together in the Heights Room to hear from keynote speaker, Jen Fry. The BC student-athletes then participated in the kick off of the SOAR Ambassador Program.

Fry was an engaging and thought-provoking speaker who spoke on topics such as identity and bravery. Fry encouraged our student-athletes to interact with new peers and step outside their comfort zones. Following Fry's keynote address, the student-athletes were invited to sign up for affinity support groups that will be led by a member of the athletic department staff who also identifies with the group.
