Dr. Major is amazing - I highly recommend booking a session with her - she just genuinely cares, understands the struggles black women experience in higher ed and wants to provide support. I'm experiencing a lack of mentorship in my program, and in one session Dr. Major filled a lot of those gaps. She provided emotional support as well as academic support by listening to my struggles, validating me, encouraging, affirming me and offering to continue helping me beyond our session, she offered to look over my work and provide feedback and she is developing a resource hub that she shared with me to help me get my methods all the way together.

Very intentional and inspirational experience with Dr. Major. She was a great listener, very knowledgeable, and thoughtful in her delivery that acknowledged my feelings and at the conclusion of the consultation, I felt empowered to move forward on this journey as others have faced similar challenges, but I don’t have to embark on it alone, as folding chair collective is there to support me!

Dr. Major is an incredibly valuable resource. While I initially reached out to her for help with my research methods course, she quickly identified some overarching issues and cut to the crux of what it means to join the 2% as a Black woman. She is both academically sound and a true champion for the Black doctoral journey.

Dr. Major has been nothing short of a God-sent experience. Her intentionality and deep alignment with the needs of doctoral students are evident in every interaction. She truly understands the rigor, complexity, and emotional weight of the doctoral journey and she shows up with clarity, strategy, and care.... I highly recommend her to any doctoral student who needs more than surface-level support. She is invested, discerning, and purpose-driven in her work. At this point, we’re locked in for life because once you experience this level of guidance and care, there’s no going back.
