This workshop will focus on how to effectively address student performance and grades in office/student hours, how to point out biases to our students and find ways to work on contentious topics. We will focus on how to effectively address biases and inappropriate comments with students and use these as teachable moments. Participants are invited to share their own experiences, pitfalls and best practices. Resources and reading materials will be provided to attendees. Anyone interested in this topic is welcome to join!   

Facilitators: Dr. Stefanie Baier & Dr. Hima Rawal
