Daja Claiborne, a junior guard/forward on Wilmington University women’s basketball team, was selected for the Student-Athlete Symposium that took place in conjunction with the 2024 NCAA Inclusion Forum, held in Indianapolis from April 24 to 26.
The Student-Athlete Symposium’s goal is to foster a sense of responsibility and leadership among participants and encourage them to champion inclusivity in both their athletic and academic spheres. Student-athletes will be engaged, equipped, and empowered to actively participate and contribute to the DEIB (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging) initiatives within their teams, in their athletic departments, on their campuses, in their communities, and on a national level.
Claiborne, a Visual Communications major, is a member of the University’s DEI Student-Athlete Council.
