To ensure that future meetings are accessible to those who are no longer affiliated with UW in an official capacity, we?ve removed that constraint. For fall 2025, no UW NetID authentication will be required to join the Zoom room. To maintain a welcoming and secure space, we may use a Zoom waiting room?so thank you in advance for your patience. *Join Zoom Meeting* Monika Sengul-Jones is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.
