Four Anti-racism/Whiteness Trainings
Co-sponsored by Staff Association and People & Workplace Culture

Facilitated by Dr. David Derezotes  


A series of four anti-racism workshops will be offered to those members of the SLCC community who identify as White. The intention of these workshops to co-create a brave space where participants do the often hard work of examining our own racism and White privilege and committing to anti-racist actions. We begin our work with the awareness that we are all living in a racist culture and participate, often unconsciously, in racist actions. A limit of 30 participants will be enrolled, and participants will be asked to commit to attending all four workshops. All workshops will be conducted over zoom once a month, in January, February, March & April 2021. Each workshop will be 90 minutes long, and will have a check in, a short didactic segment related to the literature, an experiential learning segment, and a check out. 

 

Workshop Spring dates: January 13, 2021; February 10, 2021; March 10, 2021 and April 7, 2021

 

Dr. David Derezotes (Dr. Dave) is Professor, University of Utah, Chair of Mental Health, College of Social Work, Director of Peace & Conflict Studies, College of Humanities, Fellow, Center for Teaching & Learning Excellence, Facilitator for President Watkin's Anti-Racism Task Force, Chair of Senate Advisory Committee on Diversity SACD, and MUSE Professor, Undergraduate Studies.He has been facilitating dialogues on campus and in the local and regional communities for over 30 years.

No prior experience or registration required. Just join when you can. If you’d like to receive weekly web-ex reminders, please send your email and your department name to Andrea (andrea.malouf@slcc.edu) or Heidi (heidi.o’donoghue@slcc.edu). Or just email with questions.

SLCC Business School is Utah’s First to be Named Exclusively After a Woman

Salt Lake Community College (SLCC) proudly announces a partnership with the Larry H. & Gail Miller Family Foundation to modernize its Business Building and transform its School of Business. The improvements are made possible through a generous $10 million gift from the Miller Family Foundation and Gail Miller, the largest-ever single cash donation received by the college.  SLCC is renaming its Business Building the Larry H. & Gail Miller Family Business Building in honor of the Miller family’s legacy and contributions to the community. The business school will be named the Gail Miller School of Business in recognition of the strong business acumen Gail Miller displays as a community leader and as the owner and immediate past chair of the Larry H. Miller Company. This name change will make SLCC home to the only business school in Utah and one of only a few in the country to be named exclusively after a woman.  “We are deeply humbled by the generosity of Gail and the Miller fam
