Location:
Virtual
Many jobs, especially academic positions, ask applicants to submit a “diversity statement” with their application materials. Many job seekers, unfortunately, treat such a document as an afterthought, when in fact it is a powerful opportunity to think about and articulate our goals, values, and the kind of faculty member or academic leader we aspire to be.
In this workshop, you will reflect on your identity and positionality and the role of DEI in your teaching, research, service, and community efforts. At the end of this session, you will have a working draft to tailor according to your respective needs and to continue your efforts toward and commitments to DEI and social justice.
Facilitators: Dr. Stefanie Baier (Director, Graduate Student and Postdoctoral Instructional Development) and Dr. Hima Rawal (Postdoctoral Research Associate)
This is part two of our 3-part workshop series. Our next one is on Research Statement on Wednesday, March 20 from 2:00 – 3:30 pm.
A Zoom link will be sent the day before the workshop.
