Framing our work with international students as Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) work shapes practice, engages stakeholders and connects diverse students to resources and opportunity. It allows us to construct a global framework for inclusion only limited by a local vision. Let’s explore what is missing in the larger and inclusive context of embracing institutional internalization from a DEI lens. Globally-inspired snacks, sponsored by a generous Glendale College Foundation grant, will be provided to all attendees.
Featured Speakers: Sangita Dube & Maite Peterson, DEIA
3:30-4:30 pm PT, Sierra Vista 279
A DEIA-focused workshop based on Zaretta Hammond’s “cultural tree:” the surface (the leaves); the shallow culture (the trunk); and deep culture (the roots). This interactive conversation will revolve around how these levels connect and interact with each other. Globally-inspired snacks provided, sponsored by a generous Glendale College Foundation grant.
