In early April, the Vanderbilt Owen Graduate School of Management Dean's Office put out a call for educational programming to be offered during the first Maymester session in the history of the graduate school.The month-long Maymester programming was designed to provide educational and skill building opportunities for students who needed to pivot their plans due to changes in summer internship, travel, and employment because of the COVID-19 pandemic.Along with faculty who provided credit-bearing Maymester classes, the Walker Management Library (Management Library) partnered with the Vanderbilt Libraries' Digital Scholarship and Communications Office (DiSC) to offer three non-credit Maymester programs.The first step was deciding on the topics for the programs.
