One of the key priorities to emerge from the department\u2019s 2021 DEI Days of Action<\/em> was the need to sustain department-wide discussion of how multifaceted topics of diversity<\/em>, equity<\/em>, and inclusion<\/em> relate to our department, the chemistry field, STEM disciplines, and society. Toward this goal, the DEI-O Committee is sustaining a continuing series of monthly DEI Forums. These forums will involve interactive, guided discussions<\/b> based on articles, films, podcasts, or other media shared in the 1\u20132 weeks prior to each forum<\/b>.\u00a0These forums are open to all<\/strong> in our department community\u2013including undergraduates, graduate students, postdocs, staff, and faculty<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In the spirit of Meliora<\/em>, we hope that these forums will help to center DEI in our ongoing departmental conversations, growth, and pursuit of excellence. Please contact Rose at\u00a0c.r.kennedy@rochester.edu<\/a>. to volunteer to facilitate forums, to suggest future topics, and\/or to provide any other feedback, questions, or comments.<\/p>\n
