Diversity Statement Workshop Diversity Statement Workshop
–
March 1, 2023Date:
Wednesday, March 1, 2023 - 12:00pm to 1:30pm
Location:
Zoom
Many jobs, especially academic positions, ask students 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 talk about your goals, values, and the kind of faculty member or academic leader you aspire to be.
In this workshop, we will walk you through the process of recognizing your identities 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 DEI.
Presenters: Dr. Stefanie Baier and Hima Rawal
Zoom link will be shared with participants the day before.
