Finally, this link will direct you all statements by DU’s offices in the wake of George Floyd’s murder as well as Racial Justice Resources written and curated by DU faculty and staff. On the “Resources” page of this website, there are open letters about the racial climate of DU.

Our program will be utilizing this office (SAIE) to provide 2-3 trainings throughout the year on topics such as: Queer & Ally Training (Q & A), Dialogue Skills, and Responding to Microaggressions. These will be formalized soon and sent out in a schedule with zoom links.
Responding to Trauma in the Classroom: This is an article written by Valentina Iturbe-LaGrave, Ph.D., Director for Inclusive Teaching Practices at the University of Denver with different research-based solutions that discuss navigating trauma in the higher education classroom. It is a resource for faculty, but is a good resource for everyone to train teachers as well as hold our program to an Inclusive Excellence Standard.
