To URI Faculty and Staff,
Please join us in making this year’s URI Diversity Week the successful event we have all worked to make it become. In celebrating the 12th Annual URI Diversity Week, we have organized a full week of workshops, presentations, music performances, and festivities. There is a variety of ways that URI faculty has brought inclusive diversity and multiculturalism in their classrooms. Ideas and resources can be found on the URI Diversity Week Online Teaching Manual. Consider incorporating URI Diversity Week into your Fall courses.
