Dave is joined by colleague Kim Littlefield and guest Paul Francisco, the first Chief Diversity Officer for State Street. On that topic, Paul speaks about a mindset change he experienced, no longer believing the goal is to work himself out of a job. 

Paul shares what it was like growing up in Honduras and his unexpected move to the US, which prompted his passion for DEIB. He also discusses the importance of employee networks, which they manage through the Four C's model: building community, culture, commerce, and creation and who the burden of allyship falls on.

Dave and Paul share a connection to NEHRA, which Paul praises, along with Tracy Burns, for their dedication to spreading Frank McCarthy's memory, the godfather of diversity and recruiting in Paul's eyes. 

Next up on the podcast is Bob Selle, CPO at Ocean State Job Lot.

Ep 27 - Psychological Safety

On this episode of the show, sociologist Jenifer Berry stops by to discuss the evolution of the first-generation student experience. Families are much more complex and students come from a vast array of backgrounds resulting in college experiences that are very much akin to how we've defined the first-gen experience. How do we make institutions #studentready as opposed to making students more #collegeready?

130: First Generation Status

In this episode of Yale College Voices, host Darice Corey sits down with Dr. Wendell Wallace-Juedes, Senior Assistant Director of Yale College Admissions, to explore his diverse experiences and dynamic background. He reflects on his early school days and how his behavior evolved over time, setting the stage for a deeper discussion on his transformation during college, where he became more vocal and stood up for others—a trait he continues to champion in his professional life.

A significant portion of the episode is dedicated to Wendell's passion for DEIB (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging) initiatives. He discusses his role in the DEIB committee, recounts the success of a recent event, and highlights the importance of these efforts, especially as similar initiatives are being dismantled elsewhere. Wendell’s commitment to creating a supportive and inclusive environment at Yale shines through, as he provides an insider’s perspective on Yale’s admissions process, emphasizing the university's focus on socioeconomic accessibility and support for first-generation students.

Personal elements of Wendell's life further enrich the episode. He talks about his upcoming family vacation, his ongoing passion for medicine despite shifting careers, and aspirations to write both a book and a cookbook. Wendell’s varied career path—from his initial plans to join the military to becoming a reconstructive foot and ankle surgeon, and eventually transitioning to higher education—demonstrates his dedication to continuous learning and personal growth. Through it all, Wendell’s commitment to education and advocacy for DEIB create a compelling narrative that underscores the transformative potential of education and lifelong learning.
