Elvira Diouf and Denaysia Arroyo and Getting Started
Episode 10
Tuesday, 6 September, 2022
At the beginning of 2020, due to financial constraints and staff capacity, the GlobeMed network went through a resize. We committed to maintaining all of the chapters at minority serving institutions and historically Black colleges and universities. However, some of them asked to pause operations, as this decision happened as the COVID-19 pandemic was starting and many students didn’t know what to expect from their universities. As the situation, both at GlobeMed and at universities, has changed, we've been supporting students at those institutions to re-found their chapters, after a hiatus. Elvira Diouf and Denaysia Arroyo are students at North Carolina Central University, an HBCU in Durham, North Carolina. They're working to get the GlobeMed at NCCU chapter restarted this year and talk about what the process has been like, what their hopes are for their chapter, and the benefits of attending an HBCU.
