Class Acts

“Since our first cohort in 2017, the CLA’s DEI-focused cluster hires have allowed us to introduce our students to more cutting edge, field-specific expertise related to diversity, equity, and inclusion across the different majors. This allows students to see different concepts from new perspectives and to experience more equity-minded teaching practices in their classes as well. We are excited to welcome our third and most diverse cohort this year!”  

— Jennifer Teramoto Pedrotti, Associate Dean for Diversity and Curriculum
