Dr. Brian J. Hanson opens a conversation on bullying in the academic environment, hoping to help others understand how and why it occurs.

Bryan Hanson is an ombuds, educator, mediator, facilitator, and leader in the field of conflict engagement. Currently, Bryan is the ombuds for the Graduate School at Virginia Tech. In this role, he works with members of the Graduate School community so they may engage in and manage conflict in a constructive way. This is achieved through conversations aimed at creating a greater understanding of the university system and a deeper awareness of productive ways to communicate the concerns related to the conflicts experienced.

This event is part of The College of Science Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Justice, Disrupting Academic Bullying event series.
