Annual Inclusive Excellence Summit

Organized around an overarching theme, the summit will provide opportunities for students, faculty, staff, and senior leadership to strengthen the skills that build and sustain inclusive and equitable actions across the College.

DEI Workshops

DEI workshops engage faculty and staff with dynamic programming on diversity, equity, and inclusion-related issues that may pop up either somewhat or wholly expectedly in or outside the classroom.

Staff Retreat

The College’s annual Staff Retreat is an opportunity to reflect on the many identities, experiences, and perspectives that shape our community. It offers space for staff to deepen self-awareness, cultivate curiosity, and strengthen their ability to engage thoughtfully and respectfully with others. The spirit of this retreat is to transform knowledge into action, and individual and collective behaviors into enduring practices that create meaningful and long-lasting inclusive workspaces that benefit the College and the campus as a whole.
