55. Navigating Through College with Dr. La Toya René Robertson

Wouldn't it be nice to have an actual road map to guide you through your first couple of years in college by having access to the mistakes and solutions of other student experiences? Well, you are in luck! In today's episode, Educational Consultant and Co-Author of "The College Cheat Sheet", Dr. LaToya René Robertson joins us to share some of the valuable lessons learned by students and other university professionals to help make your college experience an unforgettable one. Dr. Robertson completed both her Doctorate of Philosophy and MA in Educational Leadership & Policy Studies at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth. She received her Bachelor of Arts in Music Business at Methodist University in Fayetteville, North Carolina. As an author, implicit bias researcher, businesswoman, and educator, Dr. Robertson’s background is filled with unique and seemingly unrelated experiences; however, each experience perfectly feeds into her ability to effectively educate and consult. She has spoken at a TEDx Conference, the NASPA Multicultural Institute, contributed to virtual panels regarding equity, and the Hawai’i International Conference of Education. Her work with universities and private companies has helped to close gaps in inefficient operations, increased retention, and create solutions that engaged with all stakeholders.
