Equity & Inclusion Seminar | A Presentation on Imposter Syndrome

Two experts from the University's Counseling and Psychological Services will join us to share information about imposter syndrome. Imposter Syndrome is the belief that, despite outstanding academic and professional accomplishment, we really are not bright and have fooled anyone who thinks otherwise. It can impact students and faculty members alike. The presentation will focus on describing common experiences and identifying imposter syndrome as well as on ways that we—as individuals and as a community—can support one another to overcome the effects. This is recommended for students, faculty, and staff, particularly those who mentor. All are welcome.
