Advancing Equity and Opportunities for Education

Centering diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice, we work collaboratively across the center, the university, and beyond to design and strengthen university structures around the future of learning. We foster exploration, intellectual risk-taking, and learning from failure both in and beyond the classroom. We are committed to transforming the student and learner experience with new innovations in support of expanded access and inclusion.
