Student Advisory Board Mission
The Dialogue Vanderbilt Student Advisory Board ensures student voices are integral in the direction and activities of Dialogue Vanderbilt.
Student board members reflect the diversity of perspectives and experiences that comprise Vanderbilt’s undergraduate population. Participants contribute their ideas and expertise to programming initiatives and gain opportunities to engage with and be mentored by guest speakers and fellows, Vanderbilt faculty and staff, engaged alumni, and others.

Gerard Monteiro
Why I joined the board:
Discussing and debating various subjects with my fellow ambassadors and the faculty. Simply being able to speak about so many different topics with my peers who have gone through similar experiences has been absolutely amazing, and it has definitely been my favorite part of it all.
Max Perry
How I want to change my community:
I believe that I could continue to serve my community and university by doing my part to mitigate these issues directly, continuing to have important conversations with my peers about what we are learning, and most importantly, by spreading the word about Open Dialogue both to current students/faculty/staff and to prospective families.
Katie Tully
Why Dialogue is essential:
My experiences as an Open Dialogue Ambassador over the past two semesters have truly been some of the most impactful of my Vanderbilt experience thus far. This program has encouraged me to think deeply about a variety of topics and has given me the avenue to explore those ideas with experts and my fellow students.
