4th Annual Conocimiento Experience - Student Conference on Belonging and Community Building


At William Paterson University we come together to explore our collective strengths and share strategies to build a beloved community on and off-campus. The Conocimiento Principle emphasizes the necessity of consciously creating community within the group to heighten the potential for personal growth and shared action.  

Attend any sessions of your choice. This experience is open to all students, faculty, and staff.  Food provided in every session. Free Swag for participants.

Certificate of Participation provided to all students. 

Each session is eligible for credit towards the Social Justice Leadership BadgeThis means students can complete the SJLB requirements in one day when they attend all three sessions. *SJLB Criteria also includes completing the online diversity training.
