Skidmore College has joined the University of Southern California (USC) Race and Equity Center’s Liberal Arts College Racial Equity Leadership Alliance as a founding participant.
“Skidmore’s membership in this Alliance is a key element of our Racial Justice Initiative, and we join other leading liberal arts colleges in full participation of the Center’s key projects,” President Marc C. Conner said. “We are also gaining access to deep expertise in assessing climates of inclusion for people of color and other marginalized groups."
The University of Southern California Race and Equity Center, whose mission is to illuminate, disrupt and dismantle racism in all its forms, is the foremost research and consulting organization for racial equity work in the nation. The center conducts research and works with colleges and universities to better understand campus climate issues; to develop diversity, equity and inclusion goals; and to foster sustainable cultures of inclusion. The rigorous approach of the Center’s work is built on research, previous models of success and continuous feedback from college and university partners.
