Fall 2020 Academic Advisor Forum Series: Incorporating Anti-racism into Advising Practice
Date and time
12:00 PM - 1:00 PM, October 16, 2020
Description

Presenter: Dr. Kyler Sherman-Wilkins, Professor, Department of Sociology

If there is one thing that our current climate has taught us, it is that it is not enough to be non-racist. Instead, we must be anti-racist. But what does it mean to be an anti-racist? And, more importantly, how do we incorporate anti-racism into our advising practice? In this interactive forum, Dr. Kyler Sherman-Wilkins will provide an overview of anti-racism (with a particular emphasis on anti-racism in higher ed.) and then share best practices on how advisors can serve as better allies and advocates for their students of color.
