CORE VALUES UPDATE

The Core Values Committee had its first meeting on Thursday, October 6, 2022. The committee consists of 40 staff, faculty and students. At the first meeting, the ambassadors determined that they would break into the following four subcommittees: Our Learners Come First, Health and Wellbeing, DEIB Core Values and the Visibility Sub-committee.

On November 4, 2022, the committee met again and the Core Values Ambassadors went into breakout sessions based on their respective subcommittee to identify 3 goals and resources needed to accomplish them.
