Thank you again to all who participated in last week's Inclusive Excellence Symposium! We look forward to seeing the relationships and collaborations that come out of this year's event as #UVM continues to walk the walk of DEI.

The University Diversity Council was fortunate to meet with Dr. Kathryn Sorrells today to learn about her work on #globalization and #DEI and creating an intercultural praxis model that challenges and expands institutional norms.

I sent the following email to the University of Vermont community today... @uvmdei

In honor of #Juneteenth, we are pleased to host a film screening and conversation of the 2016 film based on James Baldwin's unfinished novel, "I Am Not Your Negro." Head over to University of Vermont's Allen House on Friday, 6/17 at noon to join in!

I am angered and saddened by the horrific killings of four Muslim men in Albuquerque. While we await a full investigation, my prayers are with the victims’ families, and my Administration stands strongly with the Muslim community. These hateful attacks have no place in America.

Today we celebrate the strength of Indigenous communities, the traditions and cultures that have survived millennia, and our fervent hope for the future. Happy Indigenous Peoples' Day, everyone!

From the minute I met Damon A Williams PhD at University of Michigan back in 2001, he has been a caring friend & a fierce advocate for the work of diversity, equity, inclusion, justice. He provided an excellent overview of the fraught landscape for #DEI work in 2022 as part of todays #NIXLA webinar. Zoom in!
