Interfaith Dimensions of Campus Inclusion


Wednesday, September 18, 2024
10:00 a.m. - 11:30 a.m.
Allendale Campus
Faculty, Staff


GVSU Inclusion & Equity Institute Color Burst

Two trends have significantly increased America's religious diversity in recent decades. The first is increased immigration by religious minorities such as Buddhists, Hindus, Muslims, and Sikhs. The second, is widespread disaffiliation from organized religion, especially among the Millennials and Gen Z. The trends are also evident on Grand Valley's Campus. As we seek to advance an inclusive campus climate, the religious, secular, and spiritual dimensions of faculty, staff, and students must be taken in to consideration

Learning Outcomes - Participants will be able to:

  • Develop a greater understanding of Interfaith and Pluralism on campus.
  • Better understand how religious / secular / spiritual identity impacts student experiences
  • Gain knowledge of GV policies and resources for creating a healthy multi-faith campus environment.

Presenters:

  • Zahabia Ahmed-Usmani (She/Her/Hers) Program Manager, Kaufman Interfaith Institute
  • Liz English (She/Her/Hers) Program Coordinator, Kaufman Interfaith Institute
