Winter Symposium

The 2021 Winter Symposium, Time 2 Act, was a huge success. If you were unable to attend the event, could only attend for a part of the event, or want to see it again, you can review the event page by clicking on the "Time 2 Act Event Page" link below.

Winter Symposium Information

Time 2 Act: Continuing Action for a Just and Equitable PSU was a follow-up to the Virtual Equity Summit: Time to Act held by Global Diversity & Inclusion during fall term. Severe weather and power outages impacted many in our campus community in mid-February leading us to make the difficult decision to cancel the February Winter Symposium and to reschedule for April 15. All PSU community members, including faculty, staff, and students, were invited to attend.

Since the fall summit, the work has been organized into five task forces according to the five-dimension framework, and since February, the work has continued. The campus community was been invited to review the Acting on Equity and Racial Justice webpage (https://www.pdx.edu/diversity/equity-and-justice) to explore the task forces' recommendations and to provide feedback before the symposium event. A recording of the event and additional event details can be found on the Time 2 Act event web page hosted by Global Diversity and Inclusion linked above.
