Faculty and Staff of Color conference

The annual Faculty and Staff of Color conference offers a wealth of resources, contact, and support for faculty, classified staff, administrators and other employees. It will take place from Wednesday, Oct. 30 until Friday, Nov. 1, at the Davenport Hotel in Spokane. Participants will have opportunities to discuss issues and share strategies that promote student success, organizational development, and career opportunities and advancement. The issues we address in this conference are central to the future of higher education in Washington and our campus communities. We invite you to use the conference as a resource for learning about meaningful ways to define the vital ties between diversity and higher education in Washington.

We have funding to pay the conference registration fee ($225) and shared lodging cost for a limited number of participants.  To supplement the remaining cost of the conference, please request funds from your department/division along with Faculty Professional Development funds or Classified Training and Staff Development funds. http://intranet.shoreline.edu/classified-pro-d/application-forms.aspx
