• Summary

  "History isn't something you look back at and say it was inevitable, it happens because people make decisions that are sometimes very impulsive and of the moment, but those moments are cumulative realities."
  --Marsha P. Johnson

  You have the power to effect change for yourself, your colleagues, your organizations, and for the students you serve or recruit. NACE’s Game Changers Series, in celebration of Pride Month, shines a light on game changers who share their personal stories and serve as models for working to bring about positive change.

  What can you do to bring about positive change? Join Scott Kustis, co-lead of NACE’s LGBTQ+ Allies Affinity Group, as he connects with other NACE members and detail their stories, support of the association’s mission, and thoughts on becoming game changers. The interviewees will also share their personal game changing experiences and what those have meant for their professional and personal selves.
