Toward Inclusive Excellence

Toward Inclusive Excellence (TIE) explores issues of equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility, particularly, though not exclusively, as they affect the higher education community. Sharing weekly blog posts by a variety of contributors, this content strand also includes resource lists, interviews, curated collections of upcoming books, and media features. TIE explores topics in social justice and prejudice as they relate to implicit bias, belonging, systemic racism, mentorship, and disability, among other pertinent areas of focus. This channel aims to develop a pool of knowledge and actionable resources for information professionals, administrators, faculty, and others seeking to understand racism and social issues from new perspectives and to promote racial and social justice on their campuses and across the professional community.
