2016-17 Diversity Lunches
In the past, the Division of Student Life has hosted Diversity Lunch programming for Division staff. Current events related to identity, inclusivity, power, privilege, and oppression have inspired us to re-invigorate this tradition and organize a series of Diversity Lunches for our own personal and professional development.
Each discussion is scheduled from 12-1, and lunch will be provided courtesy of Dean Bylander.
Information about the readings for each Diversity Lunch will be forthcoming prior to each discussion, as well as the process for RSVPs. If you are interested in facilitating one of the discussions, please contact Angie Harris.
If you have any questions, please contact one of the co-organizers: Angie Harris, Donna Hughes, or Donna Bickford.
