Share Your Perspective: Virtual Listening Sessions

As the first step in the College of Humanities and Social Sciences’ strategic planning process with our partners at Tidal Equality, we invite you to participate in a virtual listening session. The Tidal Equality team will ask for your perspectives on challenges and strengths in our current state as a college and also for your initial ideas about the future directions.

We want you to feel as comfortable as possible sharing your thoughts — candor is key! For that reason, the groups for the listening sessions are organized by role, and we encourage you to book an appropriate session, given your current role and self-identification. If you identify with more than one of these groups, feel free to sign up for more than one session.

Note: Sessions have a maximum occupancy of 100 people, so attendance is first-come, first-served.
