The End of Inclusion?

I had the pleasure of speaking with Katherine Mangan at The Chronicle of Higher Education earlier this month about strategies universities can leverage to sustain efforts to foster belonging on campus amid the continuing attack on DEIB efforts nationwide. To be sure, efforts have always needed to iterate as a function of ongoing resistance, so the notion is not new.

Despite mounting challenges, the pervasive belief that everyone has the right to belong will ultimately carry this work forward. When belonging is not present, we are all compelled to action, and we are all accountable.

I recommend reading Katherine’s story chronicling the current strategy on university campuses: The End of Inclusion? Campus Leaders struggle to deliver on a core ideal.
