Jose Moreno (California State University-Long Beach)
While the value of diversity is often understood as self-evident in higher education, we often struggle to sustain clarity of purpose and action when institutional data does not reflect our stated values. This plenary explores the theoretical and applied tenets of equity and high-quality learning within the context of demographic changes in the U.S. and Higher Education. Through the use of demographic data we will engage in interactive, reflective and critical discussions by pursuing the question: How do you know your campus provides high-quality learning environments that are equitable? In pursuing this question, participants will engage in a critical and affirming clarity of the practical urgency in reaffirming values of access, success and equity in higher education.
