The Students of Color Symposium (SOCS) is an educational initiative developed to support the ongoing diversity efforts of the University of Miami. SOCS provides an opportunity to engage in dialogue on issues that affect the educational, personal and professional growth of students. The Symposium seeks to enhance students’ understanding of diversity, multiculturalism, ethical leadership, and social responsibility associated with living in our global society.
The theme for SOCS this year, Forging the Future: Looking Back to Move Forward, calls students to reflect on what we can take from past and present social movements to create change for the future. Our goal is to empower students to create change in their areas of influence and be bold enough to make a difference.
