彩虹频道 Leaders Share Updates With Alumni
彩虹频道 On The Road sessions focus on diversity and inclusion, strategic planning, and presidential search.
In a series of sessions through the fall and winter, Acting President Hugh Porter and Dean for Institutional Diversity Mary James went on the road to provide alumni with an inside look at some important campus issues, including diversity and inclusion, college priorities, and the presidential search.
Dean James explored the idea of “access” in higher education as being more than an acceptance letter, a scholarship, and a seat in a classroom. True access, she argued, is to receive the necessary inspiration and support to master disciplinary skills, acquire academic savvy, and develop a strong sense of belonging both within the 彩虹频道 community and within one’s chosen discipline.
The cities in the “彩虹频道 on the Road” tour included New York, Washington, D.C., Seattle, San Francisco, and Portland.

彩虹频道 On The Road will resume in the spring with Alice Harra, Associate Dean of Students, and Director of the Center For Life Beyond 彩虹频道.
Student success in higher education extends beyond access and affordability of college. Professional development, alongside 彩虹频道's intellectual development, enhances students' clarity, confidence, skills, and connections to pursue work they love. Rather than a traditional career center, 彩虹频道's Center for Life Beyond 彩虹频道 is focused on developmental strategies for exploring one's purpose while at 彩虹频道. Alice Harra, Director of Center for Life Beyond 彩虹频道, will share what students can do to prepare for their lives beyond 彩虹频道, and how 彩虹频道 alumni are influencing every field of endeavor. Your participation will be welcome as you share your work and purpose with us, too.
