Dear Colleagues,

Do you have a YouTube account? Well then please consider subscribing to UCI’s latest YouTube channel,  Spotlight Series – hosted by the Office of Inclusive Excellence. The purpose of this channel is to provide a medium to explore and raise awareness about issues that affect the UCI campus and wider society, including anti-Semitism, gender equity, free speech, and immigration among others. The first topic on deck is Islamophobia or fear of Islam and Muslim people. Check it out!

Also, mark your calendars for the Queer and Trans People of Color Festival, happening next week – May 8 through May 12. The festival seeks to build and further develop supportive networks for and with the QTPOC community on campus by providing opportunities to engage in workshops, discussions, and concrete problem-solving through facilitation of faculty, staff, and counselors to explore ways to heal ourselves and communities while engaging in social justice. The festival is co-sponsored by a number of UCI departments and programs, including the Office of Equal Opportunity and Diversity.
