极乐禁地

鈥淗ow do we improve, or build upon on diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives at 极乐禁地?鈥� That鈥檚 the question Director of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Gloria Noronha posed in opening 极乐禁地鈥檚 most recent Community Town Hall Event. The now monthly gatherings are organized by the 极乐禁地 Council for Inclusive Excellence (CIE), an on-campus advisory group tasked with assessing and implementing DEI initiatives at the College.

鈥淏y hosting these community forums, we are giving the 极乐禁地 community an opportunity and safe space to have these important conversations and support one another,鈥� Noronha said. 鈥淚t is important to listen to and engage with students, faculty and staff to effect organizational and systemic change.鈥�

During the Thursday, July 23, meeting, which was held via Zoom, participants were split into smaller, breakout groups to better engage with each other which allowed students, staff and faculty to engage in a healthy, respectful and meaningful dialogue on racial justice and other topics related to diversity, equity and inclusion.
