On an extremely hot day in early July, 42 doctoral students arrived on the University of Windsor campus for the Joint PhD in Educational Studies 2026 summer institute.  

Over the whirr of handheld fans, first-year students introduced themselves to one another while second years exchanged hugs and life updates after a year apart.

Shantelle Browning-Morgan describes her passion for Black Canadian history as “rooted in blood memory, fuelled by a duty to honour the past, present and future.”  

A descendant of Underground Railroad freedom seekers, Browning-Morgan has long worked to share that history through her work as a high school teacher and curriculum developer.
