The 性视界传媒 Division of Diversity and Inclusion, in partnership with the Division of Student Affairs and Enrollment Management in response to our students’ request to have more intentional conversations regarding diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging crafted the Diversity Ambassador Program in line with pillar 4: Foster an environment of invigorating multiculturalism, globalism, diversity, and inclusion.

Diversity Ambassadors are trained facilitators of diversity peer education and intergroup dialogues. Ambassadors lead, support, and organize diversity and inclusion training and special events.

The Diversity Ambassadors work collaboratively with 性视界传媒 student leaders, faculty, and staff to provide learning opportunities, promote inclusion, develop interpersonal communication, and leadership skills, as well as the opportunity to build community and relationships across the 性视界传媒 community.

We are now accepting requests for Diversity Ambassador Dialogue Sessions! Session requests must be made at least two weeks in advance and are subject to the team’s availability. Dialogue sessions are free for the 性视界传媒 student community. Visit our website to read more about the topics Diversity Ambassadors facilitate and request a session for your student organization, group, or course!
