Action steps for faculty and instructors to bring conversations about hate and bias into the classroom
April 14, 2016
Address hate and bias incidents in your curriculum to ameliorate unacceptable occurrences in our campus community. For example, tie fall curricula or class participation to the Annual Fall Diversity Forum.
Look at “bullying” language as a way to address possible hate/bias incidents in the classroom.
Commit to engaging in ongoing cultural competency training. Learning Communities for Institutional Change and Excellence (LCICE) provides these services campuswide.
Commit to experiencing the Leadership Institute through UW Libraries and become a facilitator, carving out 10-15% of your time towards these efforts
Support the request for additional staff to help improve campus climate and our students’ ability to be successful.
Regularly visit the Campus Climate website and also report incidents of hate or bias there.
