Diversity Round-Table Discussions Will Be Held Monthly
Join us for the Diversity Round-table Discussions (DRD) presented by the Multicultural Affairs Committee (MAC). On the first Monday of the month from 12:05 to 12:55 p.m., we will be presenting a series of topics for a true roundtable discussion in the virtual live format using the Zoom platform. Social time begins at noon. All students and employees are invited, as well as silent observers. See you soon!
Objectives:
- To provide an open roundtable interprofessional discussion to listen while withholding judgment about new or unfamiliar topics.
- Interact with colleagues respectfully and appropriately in a variety of cultural contexts.
- Reassess one’s own perspective when appropriate, a process that frequently requires courage and humility.
In 2022 we look forward to these topics.
