We would love it for each department to facilitate a conversation - perhaps related to their field and equity, but it could be in relation to anything that touches on addressing systemic racism. This doesn't have to be (and probably shouldn't be) the only mechanism for cross-campus conversations. ]]> 2020-08-20 18:28:14 UTC https://padlet.com/fgambini/resolve4/wish/690108326 Knowing each other better https://padlet.com/fgambini/resolve4/wish/690108949 "Teas", panels, lunches, shared committee work, cooperative work on small tasks.

For example, where can a student go if there are issues with bias in the classroom? Where can a faculty go if they are experiencing similar conditions in their departments / divisions? kriveramtsac https://padlet.com/fgambini/resolve4/wish/690114574 2020-08-20 18:30:30 UTC https://padlet.com/fgambini/resolve4/wish/690114574 require each unit to include equity and sustainability action commitments and assessment towards commitments in PIE cuyeki https://padlet.com/fgambini/resolve4/wish/690115418 2020-08-20 18:30:47 UTC https://padlet.com/fgambini/resolve4/wish/690115418 Spring flex day discussion on race between faculty https://padlet.com/fgambini/resolve4/wish/690117104 2020-08-20 18:31:24 UTC https://padlet.com/fgambini/resolve4/wish/690117104 Have data coaches share info about differential success in divisions and departments, as a way of helping focus attention on parts of campus that are particularly problematic for Black folx. https://padlet.com/fgambini/resolve4/wish/690118765 2020-08-20 18:31:59 UTC https://padlet.com/fgambini/resolve4/wish/690118765 Training ecasian https://padlet.com/fgambini/resolve4/wish/690122565 Require training for staff and encourage participation in events like the HSS Equity Series! :)]]> 2020-08-20 18:33:21 UTC https://padlet.com/fgambini/resolve4/wish/690122565 Can we hire students to be student advocates?

Example: Should the HSS Equity Series be interpreted by the same team of interpreters throughout, or should interpreters be arranged based on the speakers (think Black female speaker with a white male interpreter when we have Black interpreters and other POC interpreters on campus)- this is something that needs to take place not only through HR/Division but also with ACCESS. ]]> 2020-08-20 18:36:44 UTC https://padlet.com/fgambini/resolve4/wish/690132713 Encourage high school outreach and dual enrollment. https://padlet.com/fgambini/resolve4/wish/690133376 Students who already feel a part of the campus when they get here may be more capable of advocating for themselves against intrinsic barriers they may encounter when they get here.
