Emerging Scholars
Graduate students interested in mentorship that assists a diverse group of students for academic research and scholarly activities. This program directly supports writing and publication through our partnership with the Journal of Multicultural Affairs and the Journal for Social Studies and History Education. This initiative is directed by President Dr. Lakia M. Scott of Baylor University.
Webinar Series
During the pandemic, TXNAME committed to fellowship and community building through our webinar series. This initiative is directed by Immediate Past President Dr. Osaro Airen. If you are interested in sharing a presentation through the Texas NAME Webinar Series, please email oairen@vt.edu


Artist-in-Residence

The Artist-in-Residence initiative began in 2018 with Michael Healey, a high school art teacher from Houston, Texas. The purpose was to showcase art and activism around Texas. Since then, we have featured Patrick Gabaldon and Hannah Bull, artists that have shared their stories relating to immigration law and environmental intersectionality. This initiative is directed by President Elect Dr. Sarah M. Straub. If you are interested in highlighting the contributions of a local artivist, please contact her at straubsm@sfasu.edu
