Earlier this month, three leaders from Drexel University’s Anti-Racism Task Force and “Drexel 2030: Designing the Future,” the University’s new 10-year strategic plan, discussed updates related to both of those long-term, University-wide projects aiming to make Drexel a stronger and more equitable institution.

The session was moderated by Ahaji Schreffler, senior director of education abroad in the Office of Global Engagement, who hosted the discussion as both the DEI liaison and CORE Team member for the Drexel 2030 strategic plan process as well as one of the two co-administrators for the Anti-Racism Task Force. The speakers were Vice President and Chief Diversity Officer Kim Gholston, who led the Anti-Racism Task Force in partnership with other University leaders, and Antoinette Westphal College of Media Arts & Design Dean Jason Schupbach, who is the dean’s liaison and one of the chairs of the Equitable Culture Imperative Team for the strategic plan.
