We admit and enroll students into our schools, but do they always feel accepted? In this session you will be asked to reflect and share ways in which you are inviting all applicants in, evolving your thinking about diversity, equity and inclusion in admission and what you are doing to help students feel accepted once they arrive on-campus. We will offer suggestions for ways to help create partnerships between the Admission and the DEI Office throughout and after the admission process so that all students feel like they belong. How do we develop the skills of interviewing and are we paying attention to what we say in our interviews? How do we help to ensure that our students are actively involved in this important work? Are we intentionally and purposefully seeking out marginalized voices and perspectives? How is our school community being educated? Are spaces being created for conversations? We have all had to evolve our thinking about diversity, equity and inclusion in enrollment management and we invite participants to engage in a dialogue about what they are seeing at their schools and what we are doing to take real action. Hear from a seasoned team who will help strengthen your partnership with your DEI partners in your respective schools.
