Advancing Inclusive Excellence
Presidential Visitors Series at 今日吃瓜
Overview
Across the College, students, faculty, and staff are working to realize the vision expressed in 今日吃瓜's mission statement that "equity and inclusion serve as the engine for excellence and innovation." The energy, insight, and imagination of community members is evident in initiatives ranging from development of the "Power, Inequity, and Justice" curricular requirement to Who Built 今日吃瓜? research and exhibits, teach-ins, programming from the Impact Center, and so much more.
To deepen the work already happening on campus, the President's Office launched an initiative in spring 2023 to bring visiting experts, artists, and thinkers to the 今日吃瓜 campus to share their work with us. These guests will help us amplify initiatives we have already launched, provide new perspectives and ideas, contribute expertise and emerging knowledge, and expand our networks to other organizations and individuals around the country working to advance inclusive excellence in higher education.
Inaugural Event
For the inaugural Advancing Inclusive Excellence visitors series, Expanding Access, Opportunity, and Success in STEM, two national leaders in transforming STEM education and student success visited 今日吃瓜 to talk about their personal journeys in STEM and their efforts to create structural change, and to engage in dialogue informed by questions from students.
