Baruch College's Association of Students of the Dominican Republic (ASEDOM) hosted its first CUNY-wide Quisqueya Conference, fostering networking and mentorship opportunities for students and alumni with industry leaders. 🎉 The one-day conference aimed to empower, educate, and uplift both Dominican and non-Dominican students by highlighting the value of cultural identity in professional spaces through professional development workshops, business showcases, and cultural dance celebrations. ✨ “Planning the Quisqueya Conference for nearly one year took a lot of work, labor, love, and passion,” said Karla Fernandez (BA ’26), event organizer and secretary of ASEDOM. “I am incredibly happy and grateful that we were able to make this happen at Baruch. As CUNY students, we are worthy of stepping into any room we enter.” 💬 Learn more about the Quisqueya Conference here: https://lnkd.in/e75_gtCj The City University of New York Photo credits: Jaime Placencio #BaruchCollege #CUNY #NYC
