NC10 participants heard from a distinguished panel of presenters, including Bennett’s Dr. Santiba Campbell, Associate Professor/ Director of Academic Special Initiatives. Discussions focused on shared values and the mission to create partnerships.

“There’s a unique window of opportunity, CREED Executive Director James E. Ford said, to increase the state’s focus on the NC10’s value – including the importance of their success and contributions to the state’s culture and need for a diverse talent pipeline.”
