Conversations for Change:
On Improving the Racial Climate at UCI
Part Two featuring Pure Praxis
The Staff Assembly Special Committee on Campus Culture is pleased to invite the UCI community to join us for Part II of the Conversations for Change: On Improving the Racial Climate at UCI series! Join us on ONE of the dates below featuring Pure Praxis, a theatrical kinesthetic-based training company that will provide a live and engaging performance illustrating some challenges and solutions that staff may encounter and when confronted with issues of racial and social injustice in the workplace. Events will be recorded for training purposes only and will not be available for viewing. We encourage all participants to reap the full benefits of the event by having their videos on.
*Due to the sensitive nature of the topics that will be addressed, each event will be followed by a 15-minute session in which participants can engage informally with or pose questions to Staff Assembly Special Committee on Campus Culture members, Pure Praxis performers, and representatives from the Office of Equal Opportunity and Diversity.
