The more inclusive and equitable your campus is, the better your student recruitment, retention and engagement will be. Institutions need to be proactive in their approach to create a more welcoming environment and ensure black student satisfaction by recognizing the unique differences, experiences and struggles they face both on and off campus.
What real changes must my institution make to be more responsive to Black students' needs?
What can you do to be more than an ally and truly advocate on their behalf?
Join us on February 14, 2018 and our expert presenter will address those questions and the challenges your Black students face daily, as well as strategies for how to help overcome them.
Explore how current events impact your Black students and analyze the similarities of history and current campus climates to help your students seek answers to their concerns not readily provided by your institution.
