Events, Conferences & Retreats

The Diversity Center’s overall theme for fall and spring events is StandOUT: “Live the Life You’ve Imagined” - Henry David Thoreau. In the spirit of this quote and in response to bullying and violence in our schools, the discussions and activities of these events will allow students to explore their role as peer allies and positive change agents for inclusion.
