more than a month: sustaining aapi visibility beyond may
wednesday, May 20
🕐 12:00 PM EST
May gets the spotlight. But what does your campus look like the other 11 months of the year?
CAMPUSPEAK is bringing together two of the most dynamic AAPI voices in higher education for a conversation that goes beyond celebration — and into action. Sam Hyun, nationally recognized AAPI advocate and Boston Globe Bostonian of the Year, and Jitesh Jaggi, Moth award-winning storyteller and immigration speaker, will explore what real, sustained AAPI visibility looks like: the stories that get left out, the communities that go unseen, and what you can do about it all year long.
Hazing on Our Watch: A Candid Conversation with Dr. Walter Kimbrough
Thursday, May 14
🕐 1:00 PM EST
Hazing hasn’t gone away — and the campuses doing the most good aren’t the ones avoiding the conversation. They’re the ones having it.
CAMPUSPEAK co-founder and president David Stollman sits down with Dr. Walter Kimbrough — “The Hip Hop Prez,” former HBCU president, Alpha Phi Alpha initiate, author of Black Greek 101, and one of the most trusted voices on hazing prevention in higher education — for an unfiltered, one-hour conversation on what it actually takes to address hazing today.
Dr. Kimbrough brings a rare combination of lived experience, scholarly rigor, and institutional credibility to this topic. He’s served as an expert witness in hazing cases, advised campuses across the country, and has never been afraid to say the things most administrators are still tiptoeing around. In this live webinar, he’ll share historical context, honest perspective, and practical insight that student affairs professionals, Greek life advisors, and campus leaders can actually use.
Your next leaders are counting on you: officer transition done right
Austin Arias
Most student organizations don’t transition well — and it’s not because outgoing leaders don’t care. It’s because no one ever built a process that actually works.
In this live, interactive webinar, we tackle officer transition head-on. Whether your organization transitions in the spring or the fall, this session gives advisors, student affairs professionals, and student leaders the practical framework they need to stop the cycle of starting over every year.
In this webinar, you’ll learn:
Why most transitions fail (and what to do instead)
The most common mistakes organizations make during this critical window
How to build a transition plan that gives incoming officers the context, tools, and relationships they need to lead from day one
Practical strategies your org can implement right now — no matter where you are in the calendar
Whether you advise a Greek chapter, an SGA, a club sport, or any student organization in higher education, this one is for you.

Together, David and Tricia created an engaging, conversational experience that invited listeners to think deeply about perseverance, mindset, adaptability, and courage.

Coaching Student orgs on AI Use
Jen Manly
In this session, Jen demystified AI tools and provided practical frameworks that student leaders used to decide when, how, and why to leverage AI in ways that aligned with their values, upheld academic integrity, and supported intentional leadership.
