Lucy De Souza, a member of the Department of Psychology’s Equity Committee, will be hosting an Equity Coffee Hour at JJ Bean.
Each week, a different member of the department’s Equity Committee will be stationed at a coffee shop on campus, waiting for UBC Psychology faculty, staff, graduate or undergraduate students to drop by for a chat. If you have a concern related to equity or diversity, you can come to learn about existing resources, if you have a suggestion for the committee you can share it, or if you just want to chat about equity and diversity in the department, you’re welcome!
Lucy De Souza, Graduate Student
Hi, I’m Lucy De Souza and I’m a third year graduate student in social psychology. In my work, I use intersectional and Black feminist theory to study how multiple social identities may distinctively shape women’s experiences in male-dominated fields. Outside of the lab, I dance, spend too much time on the internet, and (like any Vancouver graduate student) enjoy chatting over coffee. Feel free to come talk with me about your experiences in psych, student life at UBC, or anything else.
