The Office of Institutional Diversity and Inclusion will be hosting two summer cohorts of the “Making Marquette Inclusive” discussion series for university employees.
Through a robust curriculum consisting of articles, videos and facilitated conversations, participants in this mini-course explore themes such as implicit bias, privilege, microaggressions, the promotion of equity and effective dialogue orientations. Participants have the opportunity to reflect upon the relevance of these topics to their own lives, discuss with colleagues and apply the concepts to their work in an action-oriented framework.
Please note that there is an expectation that participants will take time to engage with the course readings/videos in between sessions.
