The Student Success Center in the Division of Physical Sciences has partnered with Dr. Dontarie Stallings to host a webinar called "Organizing and Management of Inclusive Groups" as the second of a three-part Diversity in STEM series. This session will facilitate a discussion on the effect of lack of demographic equitable representation that exists throughout most STEM fields and is inconsistent with a drive towards inclusive excellence, that is necessary to recruit talent from the entirety of our population. It also runs counter to the academic case for diversity, which argues for the causal relationship between diversity and success in research teams. Our recommendations represent a flexible road map that, if adopted, can lead to a climate that attracts and retains diverse, inclusive and excellent talent in academia. Zoom link and registration page can be found here. Read more about our panelist here. Monday, November 16th from 12 PM - 1 PM

The Student Success Center in the Division of Physical Sciences has partnered with Dr. Stacey Brydges and Dr. Stanley Lo to host a webinar called "Conceptualizing Student Diversity in Our Classrooms". This webinar is part of a three-part series called the "Diversity in STEM" series. In this interactive session, we will facilitate a discussion on the different ways in which diversity can be conceptualized in the classroom and how these conceptions inform instructors’ approaches to teaching, learning, and curriculum design. Together, we will examine the features and variations that make up these different conceptions and reflect on approaches we might use to create more equitable and inclusive teaching and learning spaces.
