Foundations of Diversity and Inclusion: Privilege and Power

Friday, April 14, 2023 , 12:00 pm 1:30 pm CDT

How do privilege and power function through society, and how does it affect you, personally? By reflecting on this, you can identify strategies to become more inclusive in your teaching and the workplace. This seminar will help you better understand your own multiple identities and the presence and absence of privileges based on your identities. By the end of the workshop, you will be able to analyze how privilege and power exist and function in U.S. culture and how they impact your view of the world. Registration is required
