鈥淭he College welcomed this request,鈥 said Director of Human Resources Pascahl Scott. 鈥淭his issue is very important for our College and our society.鈥

The fees for this workshop will be covered by 星空传媒视频 and will not come from an individual鈥檚 yearly professional development funds.

Members of the 星空传媒视频 community will be working together against racism. A new and important chapter in this conversation has begun and we look forward to the ideas and input of the community.
