Please join us on June 5, 2025 from 10:00am - 1:00pm at the UMass Club (One Beacon Street, 32nd floor, Boston) as the University of Massachusetts President's Office Department of Academic Affairs, Student Affairs and Equity hosts a Strategic Response Accelerator Initiative.
We have retained Dr. Damon A. Williams and his team from the Center for Strategic Diversity Leadership and Social Innovation to engage in the Strategic Response Accelerator Initiative; a systemwide engagement to equip University of Massachusetts leaders with strategic insight needed to respond to the evolving federal environment with respect to equity and access. Over the next few months, we will explore a variety of topics grounded in research and evidence-based insights to equip us as leaders to respond with confidence, coherence, and purpose aligned with our university mission.
The purpose of this planning process is to provide University leadership with best practices, national frameworks, and strategic insights on how to navigate the shifting federal administrative environment, while continuing the mission-driven work of creating inclusive and welcoming campus climates for a diverse campus community. The goal of this work is to ensure we continue to provide an accessible, affordable, equitable educational experience, which is the catalyst for social mobility, economic development, and critical to the overall growth and health of the Commonwealth and beyond.
