Impacting Inclusivity: How a certificate changed a campus
September 28, 12:30–1:30 p.m. ET
Elizabeth Osika & Mona Kheiry, Marian University
The data showed there were issues. A change was needed. But how do you get everyone to understand their role in building an inclusive community? To get people talking about uncomfortable issues? At Marian University, this was accomplished through an idea at a lunchroom table and a stack of certificates. This session will explain how this simple concept grew to something which is changing the entire campus culture.
