NOTABLES at AIM: A Speaker Series Press Lunch!

"It provides a much-needed arena for an informed and purposeful exchange on relevant issues. The third out of the seven fundamental human needs is the need to belong or connection. It comes after subsistence and security; and growth and understanding Inclusivity addresses and fulfills that need. How do we achieve it? We temper if not altogether do away with discrimination. How do we go about it? We start with intelligent discourse. This is why and how Notables at AIM came to be. We are going to talk about inclusivity in the workplace for increased productivity; in our institutions and industries for growth, and in our communities for general wellbeing. Inclusivity is a critical yet complicated humanitarian issue. Let's start engaging with it." ~Marc Ablaza, MBM '95 Natch Representative

NOTABLES at AIM is a non-traditional speaker series hosted by an array of luminaries with expertise and insight on relevant topics. It is open to controversial figures in order to spur intelligent dialogue on challenging issues.

"I'll never get tired of using my voice in advocating change. If I have to tell my story a thousand times, I would. I hope I can still see the light of the day when this country would truly experience substantive equality. There is no force more powerful than an idea whose time has come." ~Gretchen Custodio Diez, LGBTQ+ Advocate
