Event Description

We’ve all been affected in one way or another by “isms.” Racism, sexism, classism, ableism—the list goes on. As part of TIAA’s Be the Change initiative, we’re hosting a race to come together and take a stand against the “isms” holding the world back. And that’s a race we want to win.

When you sign up, you’ll have the opportunity to nominate a student for one of five $1,000 TIAA Race Against Isms Scholarships. We’re looking for difference makers who demonstrate leadership and progress in the space of “isms” or social justice. Any university or college student that attends a school in North Carolina is eligible for nomination. 

Registration is FREE for university staff and students, and each participant will receive a moisture-wicking shirt with their race packet (while supplies last).
