Join us for a dialogue about diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging

On September 14th, 7 to 9 pm, in the Science Atrium the Human Rights Lab will host a dialogue on diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) on Albion’s campus in partnership with the Ford Institute, Office of Belonging, Curtis Institute for Race and Belonging, Center for Sustainability and the Environment, and the Albion College Student Senate. The goal is for students to have the opportunity to discuss DEIB at Albion—sharing concerns as well as hopes and ideas—build networks, and gain a better understanding of existing resources so if and when rights are violated on campus students are better equipped to address the situation.

Please contact Kara Anderson at kla12@albion.edu for more information.
