Diversity, Learning and Inclusive Excellence: Accelerating and Assessing Progress
October 16-18, 2008, Long Beach, CA
This meeting aims to help campuses take diversity efforts to the next level of comprehensive, coordinated action, where educational benefits for all students -- and for the institution more broadly -- can be demonstrated in meaningful ways. It will highlight curricular, co-curricular, and institutional models that enable higher education leaders to develop, implement, assess, and continually learn from the experience of fostering diverse learning environments -- environments in which all students develop, in increasingly sophisticated ways, critical knowledge, skills, and capacities for work and citizenship. With keynotes and plenaries by:
Alma Clayton-Pedersen, AAC&U
Mildred Garcia, California State University-Dominguez Hills
Jamie Merisotis, Lumina Foundation for Education
Daryl Smith, Claremont Graduate University
Register now online.
Early registration -- through September 29, 2008.
