Some of my favorite Rutgers-Camden Students are at it again. Last week I highlighted the Underground’s podcast: Rooted In. This week, they’re gathering to discuss Rutgers-Camden’s need for an office of Diversity and Inclusion.

I’m extremely impressed by both this event, and the maturity/wisdom being brought by the Underground. Those throughout our region running meetings could learn a lot from this event, which not only organizes, but ensures that voices are uplifted, that the arts are represented, and most importantly, focuses not just on the outcome, but on making the experience of those who attend good enough that they want to come back. That’s a critical, and often ignored, element of organizing. People have to want to come back.

Stop by tonight and check the Underground out: 8pm in the Rutgers-Camden Student Center. See you there.
