Student Diversity Retreat
Date and time
Location
Blegen Hall, room 415
269 19th Ave S Minneapolis, MN 55455Description
Diversity and Inclusion is a School of Public Health priority. We know students have a strong desire to explore this important topic more. The Diversity Matters workgroup, in partnership with SPH Director of Diversity and Inclusion, have decided to set a day aside for us to dig deep. We are bringing in diversity experts to lead us through an interactive, thought provoking, and SPH centric session. This will not be a regular listen and learn session - the goal is to leave with tangible ways to recognize and successful confront bias.
The retreat will happen on Saturday, April 2, from 9 am to 3 pm.
Schedule:
9:00am - 10:00am: Check-in and Introductions
10:00am - 12:00pm: Session led by UMN SPH professor Sara Axtell
12:00pm - 1:00pm: Lunch catered by Afro Deli
1:00pm - 3:00pm: Breakout Sessions
Participants will be able to come to the whole retreat or only to the morning or afternoon session.
