AAC&U's 4th Biennial Diversity and Learning Conference
Diversity and Learning: Education for a World Lived in Common
October 24 - 27, 2002 - St. Louis, Missouri
Higher education faces a challenge preparing students for an increasingly interdependent world--a world marked by permeable borders and persistent inequalities; a world of shifting boundaries between local and global, domestic, and international; a fractured world in profound need of socially responsible and more fully engaged citizens. For more than a decade AAC&U has helped campuses tap diversity as an educational and societal resource. This conference builds upon that by addressing:
o cognitive and democracy
outcomes of diversity initiatives
o connections between U.S. and global diversity
o religious pluralism at home and abroad
o migration, hybridity, and identity
o assessment of diversity courses, programs, and services
o culturally informed democratic practices and pedagogies
o enhancement of diversity work through technology
o holistic approaches to student development
Join a national network of practitioners and researchers in St. Louis on October 24-27, 2002 to enhance existing campus diversity initiatives and chart the next frontiers of work. Diversity and Learning is a valuable meeting for faculty, administrators, students, and others interested in improving pedagogy, enhancing the curriculum, enriching the campus climate, leading systemic institutional change, promoting intergroup dialogues, and engaging communities.
