- Academic Center for Equity and Inclusion Events
The Academic Center for Equity and Inclusion (ACEI) is a faculty-led initiative created to address the personal and professional needs of our faculty as they relate to equity and inclusion. To learn more, please visit our website and be sure to check out the collection of inclusive teaching resources and the ACEI Pulse blog, which shares stories of the people and projects that contribute to the work of our center and advance the University’s mission.
Here are a few of this semester’s opportunities to learn together and collaborate.
Please forward to your faculty (full- and part-time).
Inclusive Teaching Institute
This is a three-part workshop series intended for all faculty interested in expanding their capacity to teach effectively through an equity and inclusion lens. It is also an introduction to the ACEI community. Our goal is for everyone who teaches at St. John’s to take all three workshops. Please join us!
P&B Equity Advocates
This two-part workshop series is designed for members of the Personnel and Budget (P&B) Committees. All P&B Committees are required to have at least one Equity Advocate who has undergone this training, but ideally there should be more than one trained member of every P&B.
* Each module is offered twice during the semester to accommodate everyone’s schedule. Please only sign up for one date/time that suits your schedule for each module. Modules should be taken in sequence.
