Guest speaker, Justin Brown, will be hosting a workshop on Creating Inclusive Spaces for IUP faculty and programming staff from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on Friday, October 23, 2020. As an IUP alum
and a current PASSHE employee, Justin has a unique perspective on what life as
an IUP student is like and he is well-versed in virtual DEI trainings – which
works perfectly for times of social distancing.
Justin has done
some great trainings for our students, but we wanted to make sure that faculty
and programming staff also had opportunities to engage in conversations about
diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in the classroom and at campus events.
This will include classroom dynamics, course/event content, and curriculum.
Justin is a
dynamic presenter and while this session may seem like a long time to carve out
of your schedule, it will be worth it! As Justin likes to say, "We can no longer be the change we want to see, we have to teach the change we want to
see."
The Zoom link and log-in details will be sent the day
before the training. Please RSVP for the training. Sponsored by the President's Commission on Diversity and Inclusion. Further information: mduncan@iup.edu.
