From Awareness to Action: Practices for
Centering Equity in Public Higher Education
Dr. Maru Gonzalez, North Carolina State University
August 8, 9 a.m. - 3 p.m.
The work of advancing equity in public higher education is not a box to be checked; it requires intentionality, collaboration, integration, and a proactive and sustained commitment to systemic change. In this informative and interactive session, participants will identify and apply equity-focused, research-based practices to cultivate a culture of belonging and improve the recruitment, retention, and long-term success of under-represented student populations.
Dr. Gonzalez鈥檚 workshop is generously supported by a FY2024 Higher Education Innovation
Fund Grant, provided
by the Department of Higher Education.
