[At The College], we walk the talk [by] working to serve underrepresented groups in our industry. ‘If I can see it, I can be it!’ is our mantra. As a platform where we convene our allies at all levels, there’s nothing else like it.

Executive Director, The American College Center for Economic Empowerment and Equality
