Bystander leadership

We offered our first interactive, all-day Bystander Leadership Workshop on Friday, Apr. 28, 2023. Our bystander programming is adapted from the award-winning Bystander Leadership program developed by FIU ADVANCE, the NSF ADVANCE team at Florida International University.

Anti-bullying statement of values

The Academic Senate has approved an Anti-Bullying Statement of Values. The ad-hoc Anti-Bullying Committee of the Academic Senate issued a series of recommendations to support a welcoming campus climate and culture. One of these recommendations is that the university set up a website. For now, the Anti-Bullying Statement of Values can be found on the Anti-Bullying Statement page set up by the Provost’s Office.
