Teaching and Learning Antiracism

Students walking around the Circle on Opening Day.

By exploring the ideas, language, and behaviors that challenge what feels familiar, we push ourselves to “be the change.” Our commitment is an ongoing process that includes reviewing and revising our programs and practices, so that assimilation is not an expectation. Instead, we want our community to become a place where people feel they can be themselves even when that does not conform to the prescribed "Casti way.” 

Commitment is measured by time, resources, and processes that inspire curiosity and demand accountability. To that end, we commit to continuing to:

  • Reviewing and expanding our antiracist curriculum for all students across all disciplines, while enhancing our social justice and integrated leadership programming
  • Bringing a greater number of racially “Ethnically or in all areas of identity” diverse voices and experiences to campus to highlight their contributions to society and their impact on local, national, and global platforms
  • Ensuring Student Affinity Groups have protected time in the weekly programming schedule to meet during the school day
