The mixer will be set up "speed dating" style so that students and professionals have a chance to get to speak with a variety of women before the end of the evening. The purpose of the mixer is to connect female-identifying students and various professional women from a broad range of careers around Los Angeles. We hope the event will be an opportunity for students to network and form connections with women who are already established in the workplace, leading to new jobs and mentorship.

Million Dollar Hoods maps the fiscal and human cost of mass incarceration by showing how much the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department and the Los Angeles Police Department spent on incarceration between 2010 and 2015. The maps do not show where arrests are made. Rather, the maps show the neighborhoods where persons arrested by LASD and LAPD live and how much LAPD and/or LASD spent to incarcerate them. Currently highlighted on the map are the thirty-one neighborhoods where LAPD and LASD spent at least $6 million between 2010 and 2015.
