Would higher education benefit from a "Green Book?" At its core, the Green Book was about safe and dignified travel for Black people. Join higher education experts as we discuss how institutional factors (e.g., policies, financial aid, leadership) can facilitate or inhibit affirming, life-giving environments for Black students in a tumultuous context. Our central questions: Do we need a Green Book for higher education? If so, what would a Green Book of higher education look like for Black students and families? 

This webinar will be facilitated by Antar Tichavakunda (UC Santa Barbara) who was awarded a Pullias Center 2025 Alumni Award to support racial equity-related research and projects.
