The Resilient Campus podcast was published in July 2017 to address the concerns of college and university inclusion professionals. They are exhausted and burning out quickly. The Resilient Campus podcast is one of two initiatives born from the feedback shared with founder, Dr. Saby Labor, in Resilient Campus’ first year in business. In order to create platforms for college and university professionals to feel supported and feel part of a larger community, a virtual community space was also created using the Mighty Networks app and web-based platform.
