The Trans4m Center Presents

Summer Symposium
Courageous Heroes

 

Connect with other "Super Heroes" like you!

Not only will we look at the fictional heroes we are drawn to but, more importantly, the heroes in our lives, in our professions and in our communities.  We encourage you to “show up” and to connect with other heroes like you! The Symposium is about work and play, learning and connecting. So, while we work, let’s remember to play and have fun!  We encourage you to come dressed as your favorite hero – super or not!
