This course introduces students to recent research and theory surrounding race, ethnicity, access, inclusion, and equity in higher education. It focuses on the development of knowledge, skills and awareness that is crucial in becoming an engaged scholar and practitioner in the areas of diversity, equity, and inclusion. We discuss the responsibilities, tensions, and opportunities one must have in creating and maintaining a pluralistic and inclusive campus for all. We also discuss ways in which themes of identity and diversity operate far beyond one-on-one relationships but rather extend to systems and structures that comprise a college and/or university environment.
