Counselor Education and Counseling Psychology’s 22nd Annual Diversity Gala, May 6

The students of the Department of Counselor Education and Counseling Psychology invite you to the 22nd Annual Diversity Gala on Saturday, May 6, to help support the CECP Graduate Student Organization’s Diversity Scholarship. 

The event will be held from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. in the AMU Monaghan Ballrooms. Register online before Saturday, April 29, to attend. 

The Diversity Gala will feature a keynote address by Cheryl Schiltz, who is involved in neuroplasticity substitution research after suffering a brain aneurysm and seizures. At the University of Wisconsin-Madison, she was not only “Subject Zero,” but also the co-investigator of the research. 

Registration options*: 

  • $20 per CECP GSO member and each guest 
  • $20 each to sponsor a GSO student. If you are sponsoring a student and do not have their name and would like CECP to identify one to attend, please indicate “sponsor a GSO student.” 
  • $30 per Non-CECP GSO member and each guest 

Registration includes hors d’oeuvres, a cash bar (one drink ticket included with registration), a silent auction and raffle. 

Prices will increase by $5 after Saturday, April 1, for each in-person registration option, and an additional $5 per person at the door on the day of the event. 

Guests are asked to wear semi-formal dress attire. 

Direct any questions or special needs to CECP GSO Social Chair Uma Rathore or call the CECP office at (414) 288-5730.
