Wyoming has hosted two discussions since creating Many Stories Matter, Stereotypes and The Power of Listening, and provided a meeting place for student-athletes to share their stories, thoughts, and opinions in a judgement free zone.
Tapia, who recently received Google Cloud Academic All-America® honors for the second consecutive year, facilitated and hosted both sessions.
