Hamilton staff and faculty from a number of offices met with Adeleri Onisegun, director of the psychology program at Paine College, for a workshop titled "Overcoming Barriers to Inclusiveness: From Theory to Practice" on June 20. Onisegun led 20 participants from the dean's office, the admission office, several additional administrative offices and a dozen academic departments in a discussion of ways in which Hamilton can most effectively attract and retain faculty and students from underrepresented groups.
Discussion topics included admission, the classroom climate, curricular issues, and long-term vision for the campus. The fruits of the conversation with Onisegun, which include a number of suggestions for short- and long-term actions, will be shared with the campus planning committee chaired by President Stewart at an upcoming meeting this fall.
