SPRING 2016 Workshop on Climate Change (click for details)

This initiative focuses on inequality within domestic and international communities.  The purpose is to engage faculty, from a variety of departments, schools, and colleges across campus, in an interdisciplinary dialogue focusing on inequality.

Particular areas where inequality exists that could be the subject of examination include

• Access to education, especially STEM; legal justice; health care; technology; natural resources; jobs; and housing

This initiative complements the university-wide “Visioning Future Excellence” foci on Social Equality and Cultural Understanding; Economic Development; and Energy and the Environment
