Registration Open For April Diversity Conference

Registration for the University of Cincinnati’s third annual Diversity Conference is now open. The conference will be held Wednesday, April 20, 2011.

"With the theme 'Diversity & Inclusion: Accelerating the Transformation,' the conference will highlight pedagogy, experiential knowledge and innovative practices that encourage individuals and organizations to build vibrant, diverse and inclusive environments," said Stacy L. Downing, conference co-chair.

Brenda J. Allen, Ph.D., Associate Dean in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, and a Professor in the Department of Communication at the University of Colorado Denver (UCD) will open the conference with a thought-provoking morning presentation followed by 30 exceptional concurrent sessions from faculty, staff, students and community partners. 

Three outstanding individuals will receive the Marian Spencer Diversity Ambassador Award during the lunch session and attendees will have the opportunity to participate in fireside chats with Provost Santa Ono, Vice President & Chief Diversity Officer Mitchel Livingston and Dean & Chair of the Diversity Council Louis Bilionis. 

"The conference will conclude with a reception allowing attendees to network and debrief from a fantastic day of conversations," Downing said.
