Dr. Arden Eli Hill joined us for an interactive session on setting up an inclusive classroom. Dr. Hill holds a Ph.D. in Creative Writing from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln with a specialization in Women and Gender Studies and an M.F.A. from Hollins University. In this session, Dr. Hill joined us for an interactive session to discuss how he sets up the semester's expectations around inclusion with pre-semester documents and activities, as well as his work with the William H. Thompson Scholars Learning Community, to help prepare instructors to discuss diversity in the classroom. Dr. Hill presented his promising practices and allowed us time to ask questions and engage in discussion about inclusive classroom environments.
