Ripple Effect presents "Roost & Branches" LIMITED

Thursday February 13, 2025 9:15am - 10:15am CST

BLACK BOX

This session has gathered both faculty and student speakers to share their thoughts in TED-style talks that will ripple out to inspire, spark imagination, and generate thought-provoking conversations.

We will feature talks that will explore the theme of “Roots and Branches” – a theme that will delve deep into origins, foundations, and essence; a theme that will explore offshoots, projections, and extensions.

Our student-driven event organizers have worked incredibly hard to produce this event and hope to have you join us for our second year of Ripple Effect: Learning Together Conference Edition.
