Training Sessions and Town Hall Events                 
The Diversity & Inclusion Committee has hosted training sessions to promote awareness about a number of issues regarding diversity in order to increase our ability as a school to address these issues and create a wholly inclusive campus. In the past, we have held sessions on mental health, disability rights, transgender issues, and race relations, and we will continue to host these events.
