Campus spaces and what they offer play a vital role in student success. By making organizational and operational changes, these spaces can better respond to transformational shifts in higher education. In order to build long-term value and agility in physical campus space, we must connect academia with industry, teaching with research, student affairs with academic affairs, online with on-campus experiences, and capital with operational planning. In this session, you'll learn how to combine digital and physical environments, promote diversity and inclusion, and implement flexibility within campus spaces to prepare your institution for a more blended world.

Learning Outcomes:

  1. Explain the challenges of formally honoring the enslaved and recognizing their historical contributions to an established institution.
  2. Describe ways in which you can initiate a conversation around sensitive issues such as race or justice at your institution.
  3. Outline at least one successful planning approach for engaging diverse campus organizations in an institutionally restorative process.
  4. Identify key campus players and their roles in creating the atmosphere essential to promoting positive outcomes around sensitive planning issues.
