02/13 - Athenaeum at 1pm - Building and Supporting a Diverse WSU

 
Please join us on Wednesday, February 13 at 1pm for the Athenaeum titled Building and Supporting a Diverse WSU, presented  by Connie Gores, Tamara Berg, Joan Francioni, Barbara Oertel, and Josh Brandon.

Winona State held its first all-university Diversity Summit in October 2012. Over 200 students, staff, and faculty members attended the event and participated in discussions on to build and support a more diverse community at WSU.

The consensus from the Summit was that building and supporting a more diverse population and environment at WSU is important and beneficial to the university and the entire community.

Panelists will present the findings of the Diversity Summit, report on actions that have since been taken to address some diversity concerns, and discuss a number of strategies proposed for going forward. This will be an interactive session with time allotted for open discussion.
 
The Library Athenaeum is located on the second floor of the WSU Krueger Library. For more information and our schedule please see our Website:  http://www.winona.edu/library/athenaeum/
