Office hours are really STUDENT hours!

Office hours are student hours. When is the last time you visited one of your faculty members during their 鈥渙ffice hours?鈥� These are specific times that instructors have set aside to meet with students in their office (hence the term 鈥渙ffice hours鈥�) to answer questions about content from class, visit about research, or chat about career options in their field.

Faculty and instructors want to help you succeed, so check out the hours on their syllabus and go visit them, if for no other reason than to introduce yourself and say 鈥渉ello!鈥�

Need tips on how to communicate with faculty? Check out this resource.

Lean into discomfort as we engage in a discussion around the 400 years of inequality

A 400 Years of Inequality workshop will be held from 6:30-8 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 26, in 208 RSC.

Join us at 6:30 p.m. in the Office of Diversity and Inclusion as we review the 400 years鈥� timeline. We will engage in tough, but necessary dialogue. 2020 marks the 400th anniversary of the arrival in 1619 at Jamestown of the first Africans to be sold into bondage. These Africans were the first of millions who followed as slaves to work on plantations established on land stolen from the indigenous peoples of the continent.

Colonialism and slavery were soon codified into laws promoting inequality and legitimating oppression and terror. These laws and the practices they encouraged were and remain formidable barriers against efforts by Native Americans, African Americans, poor whites, and numerous other groups, to unite against the dispossession and occupation of lands, and exploitative and oppressive life and work conditions.

We need desperately to link arms in radical equality. The Office of Diversity and Inclusion asks attendees to lean into discomfort and go through the 400 years鈥� timeline with reflection, discussion, and a call to action.

For more information go to  or contact the Office of Diversity and Inclusion at 978-3034.
