It was an honor to support last week's second annual HBCU Professor Retreat, hosted by ICON360 and Pensole Lewis College in New York City. This event brought together industry leaders and HBCU faculty for solution-focused conversations to advance HBCU students in the fashion industry. On Juneteenth, we hosted the panel "Empowering Student Career Paths: From Campus to Nordstrom," where our HBCU alumni employees shared their personal experiences and discussed recruiting, talent, and networking opportunities. As part of the two-day retreat, we welcomed professors to the Nordstrom NYC Flagship for Industry Day, showcasing various career paths through more intimate discussion sessions with our leaders and employees. The program culminated in a networking luncheon which brought together meaningful connections and conversations between the visiting professors, Nordstrom leaders, and industry colleagues. We're committed to fostering talent and creating pathways for HBCU students and we look forward to continuing building on this impactful work. Thank you to everyone who participated!
