Community Action Faculty Panel

Event Description: What does it mean to be an academic and an activist? Join the Faculty Senate Committee for Fairness, Equity, and Inclusion for a moderated panel on the topic of “Community Action.” This event is specifically for faculty across all three campuses. Panel members will speak to their areas of expertise related to community action, what community action can look like for faculty members who want to engage in social change work, and action steps faculty can take to promote justice. After the panel presentation, we will take questions from the audience. Food will be provided.
