I am in the purpose of helping people by using a pedagogy fused with love of self, love of others, and equity.
Tawn Hauptli from Mesa Community College and myself, on behalf of South Mountain Community College, will be presenting at the 2023 Student Success Conference. We will be presenting on a framework we use in our EDU230, Diversity in Education class, called the Equity Literacy framework created by Paul Gorski. Equity literacy is a holistic framework that aims to promote fairness and justice in schools. It is built upon two key pillars: a dedication to enhancing personal and institutional comprehension of how equity and inequity function in societies and organizations, and the acquisition of individual and institutional capabilities and determination to identify and rectify instances of inequity while actively fostering equity. When we adopt equity literacy, we strive to become advocates against inequity and proactive agents of change within our spheres of influence. We develop a deeper understanding of the factors contributing to inequities, allowing us to actively work towards their elimination and the establishment of equitable learning environments. If you are able to attend the Student Success Conference, please do.~Andrea https://lnkd.in/gddBwsrC

Dear, University of Utah Dream Center Friends: Lack of financial resources and access to professional development opportunities make undocumented students’ dreams and aspirations almost impossible to achieve. Federal law does not allow for their employment, except for those qualifying for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA). At the Dream Center, through the ASPIRE Fellowship Program, we provide professional development and experiential learning opportunities regardless of immigration status. Students who participate in the program receive $4,000. Please consider a gift to the Dream Center to provide undocumented students access to professional development opportunities. As stated by one of our student participants: “By investing in this program, donors are not only supporting the education and development of undocumented students but are also empowering individuals to become future leaders in their communities.” - 3rd Year Can undocumented students at Utah count on your support today? To make a gift of $5, $10, 20, $50, $100 or more, click on the link below:

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Community colleges are among the most important assets in higher education. They have a terrific story to tell as catalysts for economic growth and opportunity. There’s no denying that community colleges play a vital role in our society by offering flexibility, comprehensive student support, hands-on learning, and an encouraging community of people invested in student success. As our national workforce evolves over the next decade, community colleges can fulfill the growing demand for technical knowledge and skills. By providing industry-aligned academic programs, community colleges set the foundation for a secure, equipped workforce of the future. Yet, far too often, that story gets lost in tired stigmas that minimize the role of community colleges. Let’s change the narrative. Last month, Lumina Foundation convened a roundtable of community college leaders from Great Falls College Montana State University, Guam Community College, Cape Fear Community College, County College of Morris, Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College to discuss how we can better communicate their value amidst a time of broader college skepticism. The biggest takeaways? Though we’re facing an uphill battle, community colleges can reassert value by adapting messaging, amplifying alumni success stories, and continuing exceptional data-backed efforts to support students holistically. For more solutions, watch the roundtable to hear from the outstanding schools doing the work.
Community colleges have a terrific story to tell. Here’s how to showcase their strengths.
