Teaching and Scholarship Hub

We invite you to join us for an important faculty development opportunity with Dr. Terri Givens, founder/CEO of Brighter Higher Ed, political scientist, consultant, and a former vice provost and provost. Radical Empathy: Finding a Path to Bridging Racial Divides addresses issues of structural racism and the persistence of inequality and offers practical steps for calling out racism and affecting radical social change. Dr. Givens will call for us to move beyond an understanding of others’ lives and pain to understand the origins of our biases, including internalized oppression. Please join us for a session that will be part presentation and part workshop. 

To learn more, please see this excerpt from the forthcoming book.

Please note that we no longer have copies of the book, but it is now available via JSTOR with unlimited access and download.

Sign up here to join us for this book talk on Monday, March 22 from 1-2:30 p.m.

The Faculty Hub will also hold a conversation on Thursday, March 25 from 9-9:50 a.m. to continue the discussion about how we can employ some of Givens’ ideas in our work as educators. This conversation will be co-facilitated by Vice President for Information Services and Chief Information Officer, Keith McIntosh, and Linda Boland, Director of the Faculty Hub.  If you would like to join us, please register here.
