Race and Diversity - Jefferson East Falls

Roxboro House Roundtables

How does race and diversity look on your campus? At Jefferson – East Falls, we explored how race and diversity on this campus is getting better, but still, has a long way to go facilitate marginalized groups being comfortable in the classroom and on campus. This RoundTable brought together a group of students at the university who candidly and emotionally shared common difficulties experienced by minority members in a predominately white school. In response to these grievances, the Student Government Association, the sponsor of the RoundTable, discussed its initiative to require all professors to be properly trained on how to handle diversity issues and conflicts. All agreed that things will never change without constantly striving to be make Jefferson a more inclusive and comfortable campus
