Please join representatives from the Advancing Communities of Equity through Institutional Transformation (ACE-IT) group at St. John’s University for the second part of the Faculty Town Hall that will discuss the results of the Collaborative on Academic Careers in Higher Education (COACHE) survey and equity focus group.

This survey was taken by faculty in the Spring of 2022 and the equity focus groups were held in the Fall of 2023. The results from the survey and the focus groups will be presented and discussed. The group will utilize an intersectional and culturally responsive approach to develop a five-year equity strategic plan for faculty based on the results and feedback from the upcoming town halls.
