The webinar, titled \"How to Select, Apply to, and Prepare for Graduate School,\" aims to increase diversity in higher education by connecting underrepresented students with resources and opportunities in academia. The session emphasizes the mission of the Diversity Forum, established in 1991, to promote access to graduate education. General community Zoom guidelines are provided for participation, including advice on maximizing video streaming and speed by closing other programs. Specific chat and Q&A guidelines are outlined: the chat function will be inactive during presentations, questions should be submitted via the Q&A feature, and the Q&A will be actively moderated to ensure a safe and friendly environment. The workshop features a segment on \"How to Choose a Graduate Program\" presented by Laura McGeehan, with advice on considering career goals to decide between a Master's or PhD, adopting a \"divide and conquer\" strategy, networking with faculty, and consulting current graduate students. These steps, attributed to The Princeton Review, offer a structured approach to program selection.",{"@graph":69,"@context":122},[70,84,105],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":40,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/research-report/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/2020-southern-california-forum-for-diversity-in-graduate-education-virtual-workshop-series-how-to-select-apply-to-and-prepare-for-graduate-school/203029/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/2020-southern-california-forum-for-diversity-in-graduate-education-virtual-workshop-series-how-to-select-apply-to-and-prepare-for-graduate-school/203029.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"Anda","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-19","2026-09-04",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":39},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",{"@type":106,"mainEntity":107},"FAQPage",[108,114,118],{"name":109,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":111},"What is the primary mission of the California Forum for Diversity in Graduate Education?","Question",{"text":112,"@type":113},"The mission is to increase diversity in higher education by connecting underrepresented students with resources and opportunities within a community that values graduate education and promotes access to academia.","Answer",{"name":115,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":116},"What are the recommended guidelines for participating in the virtual workshop?",{"text":117,"@type":113},"Participants are advised to respect virtual boundaries, close other programs to maximize video streaming and speed, and submit questions via the Q&A feature, as the chat function will not be active during presentations.",{"name":119,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":120},"What key steps are recommended for choosing a graduate program?",{"text":121,"@type":113},"The suggested steps include considering career goals to decide between a Master's or PhD, employing a \"divide and conquer\" strategy, networking with faculty, and consulting current graduate students.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":83,"og:type":124,"og:title":65,"og:site_name":95,"og:description":67},"article",{"robots":126,"canonical":83},"index,follow",{"doc_id":128,"site_id":62},203029,1788554121,{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":131},{"doc_id":128,"user_id":132,"nickname":92,"user_avatar":133,"doc_module":4,"category_id":39,"category_name":40,"doc_title":65,"doc_description":67,"doc_content":134,"file_id":135,"file_url":136,"file_type":137,"file_size":138,"view_count":39,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":8,"is_downloadable":8,"audit_status":8,"page_count":139,"language":140,"language_code":63,"site_id":62,"html_lang":63,"table_of_contents":141,"faqs":142,"seo_title":143,"seo_description":67,"update_tm":129,"read_time":144,"preview_page_count":4},962075006959,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/avatar/e0002397efbe92a78e?_k=1776741047341049297","Welcome to the  \n2020 Southern California Forum for Diversity in Graduate Education  \nVirtual Workshop Series  \nTODAY’S WEBINAR  \nHow to Select, Apply to, and Prepare  \nfor Graduate School  \nKathy Redd, Moderator  \nJohn Herring  \nAntonio Knox  \nDawn Loyola, Ed.
