Many jobs, especially academic positions, ask students to submit a “diversity statement” with their application materials. Many job seekers, unfortunately, treat such a document as an afterthought, when in fact it is a powerful opportunity to think about and articulate our goals, values, and the kind of faculty member or academic leader we aspire to be.
In this workshop, we will walk you through the process of recognizing your identities and positionality, and the role of DEI in your teaching, research, service, and community efforts. At the end of this session, you will have a working draft to tailor according to your respective needs and to continue your efforts toward DEI.
*This concludes our 4-part workshop series.
Facilitators: Dr. Stefanie Baier and Dr. Hima Rawal
