Dr. Frank Harris III is a professor of postsecondary education and Co-Director of the Community College Equity Assessment Lab (CCEL) at San Diego State University. He is best known for his expertise in racial (in)equity in postsecondary education and the social construction of gender and race in college contexts. his work prioritizes populations that have been historically underrepresented and underserved in education.
SEMINAR DESCRIPTION: Community College faculty play an essential role in institutional efforts to close equity gaps and achieve student success, yet many campuses struggle to engage a broad constituency of faculty in these efforts, leaving many to wonder, "What is my role and responsibility in advancing equity efforts in my classes and beyond?"
Thus, in this address, the presenter will:
a) Discuss the role all faculty must embrace to advance and achieve institutional equity and
b) Propose culturally affirming teaching and learning strategies that must be employed by all classroom faculty to address inequity and disproportionate impact.
The insights of this presentation will be derived from experiences working with community colleges across the United States in a range of equity-related efforts and initiatives.
