Diversity Week consists of a series of lectures, workshops, roundtable discussions, a graduate student symposium, videos, fine art exhibits and coordinated classroom activities. The week also includes celebrations of music, dance, and a Poetry Slam. We invite proposals that have the potential to involve a wide audience of faculty, staff, and students in learning through interaction and meaningful dialogue. We especially welcome proposals for activities that can engage participants in personally meaningful learning opportunities that increase awareness, knowledge, and competencies related to diversity and multicultural issues. Submit electronically via form.
Proposals require only a brief abstract describing the ideas or concept and the desired format.
The Diversity Week 2001 Planning Committee will review all submitted proposals and inform presenters of their acceptance. Proposals are invited from students, faculty, staff and external community members. Faculty also are encouraged to participate in Diversity Week by focusing on diversity and multicultural themes in classes which meet that week or by arranging for classes to participate in scheduled activities. For roundtables, priority will be given to proposals that allot a significant portion of the 75-minutes to interaction among those in attendance. Please check all acceptable time slots under the program format that you are proposing.
