Belonging & Inclusion Blueprint

The Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion is pleased to introduce the Belonging & Inclusion Blueprint Canvas Curriculum. Designed to meet the diverse needs of our 映客直播 community, this curriculum offers a comprehensive selection of free, online professional development modules.

Tailored for students, faculty, staff, and community members alike, these modules provide valuable insights into topics such as belonging, inclusion, biases, and culturally sustaining pedagogy. Our primary aim is to foster enhanced relationships, services, and resources within the 映客直播 Community.

This innovative workshop aims to provide a safe and constructive space where both students, faculty, and staff can explore, examine, and ultimately challenge their implicit biases. By doing so, we can foster an environment that promotes empathy, encourages critical thinking, and empowers everyone to create meaningful change.

Goals for This Workshop

  1. Raise Awareness: This course will raise awareness of the prevalence and influence of implicit biases in our daily lives. Through interactive discussions, engaging activities, and real-life examples, participants will recognize the unconscious biases that shape their perceptions and behaviors.
  2. Identify Opportunities for Change: Participants will examine how implicit biases can impact interactions within the college community, potentially leading to disparities in academic, social, and professional settings. By understanding these implications, we can work towards a more inclusive campus environment.
  3. Promote Empathy and Understanding: By exploring various lived experiences and perspectives, students and faculty will develop a deeper sense of empathy, promoting better communication and understanding among diverse individuals.
  4. Develop an Inclusive Campus Culture: By embracing a collective commitment to reducing implicit biases, we will strive to create a more welcoming and equitable campus culture where everyone can thrive and succeed.

Message from the President

Dr. Stanley T. Wearden

I came to 映客直播 because of our clear and inspiring mission statement and my realization that if we can fully live into that statement, we will be one of the greatest universities in the United States. Our mission statement says, 鈥淭he University is committed to an ecumenical spirit, respects diversity, and recognizes the dignity and worth of all human beings.鈥 It says, 鈥渁 liberally educated person is sensitive to the needs and rights of others.鈥 And, it establishes the missional pillars of truth, virtue, justice, and love. This mission is why we have an Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. We have the responsibility, powerfully articulated in that mission statement, of ensuring that MU is a fully inclusive environment 鈥 an environment in which all students, of all backgrounds, have the opportunity to participate and to thrive. That is my commitment as president and our commitment as a university.
