In a plot twist for this week, we did not talk about what we had planned for this episode. Starting with some reflection by Kyle on his journey in academia and some bonding over some quality memes, we ended up having a great conversation about diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in the geosciences after Kyle shared about a workshop he attended recently by ADVANCEGeo (https://serc.carleton.edu/advancegeo/index.html). A little bit of a different episode than we’ve recorded before, but it was a great conversation and we’re looking forward to continuing to talk about DEI in the sciences in the future.
