The current goals of the WUTA Equity Team are to increase awareness of Anti-Bias training opportunities, to support best practices for equitable instruction for all students, and work towards policies that focus on access and inclusion for minority populations. Any current member who has concerns regarding discriminatory mistreatment for themselves or their students may bring attention to these matters in a safe space.
Please save the date for Thursday, October 19th from 3:30-5:00. WUTA Equity Team will be hosting a Community Building Meet and Greet at Transplants Brewery. Please attend if you are interested in collaborating with us, and all attendees will be entered into a raffle for some available prizes!
