Hi everyone,
starting this blog as part of our new Teaching, Learning, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion website — a space for campus colleagues who teach, advise, mentor, and support students.
What you’ll find here
Whether you’re looking for:
- Guidance on teaching policies,
- Ideas for inclusive course design or classroom practice, or
- Inspiration for fostering belonging and connections,
this site is a place to start. We’ll keep adding resources and using this blog to share updates as the site grows.
Why this blog
Periodically, I’ll post a short spotlight on something happening on campus — programs that help students meet basic needs, inclusive teaching efforts, student-led initiatives, and more.
The goal is to make visible the thoughtful, everyday work our colleagues are already doing to build a more equitable and inclusive campus. These stories can remind us what’s possible and perhaps spark ideas for others.
How you can take part
I’d love to hear from you:
- What kinds of resources would make this website more useful in your work?
- Are there DEI efforts, programs, or people you’d like to see featured?
You can share your thoughts or nominate an initiative through our quick form: DEI Spotlight Submission Form
Thanks for taking a few minutes to explore the site — and for being part of the ongoing work to make this a more equitable and inclusive place for everyone.
Take care,
Brittany Liu
Associate Provost for Teaching, Learning, Equity & Inclusion
