Huskers 5th annual Diversity and Inclusion Summit embraces heart knowledge, inspires Husker Inclusion Council

Each year, Nebraska Athletics hosts a Diversity and Inclusion Summit for both student-athletes and staff to attend. The 2020 Summit impacted nearly 1000 people in 2 days and served as a timely reminder of what it takes to build and maintain an inclusive environment in Nebraska athletics and beyond. Nebraska Athletics welcomed nationally recognized speaker Justin Jones Fosu to campus to discuss his philosophy of "Embracing Everyday Diversity; Moving from Head to Heart."

Men's Track and Field student-athlete, Sadio Fenner kicked off the student-athlete summit by sharing his story about being negatively stereotyped during a previous educational experience.
