ODI Special Initiatives
In addition to regular programming, consultation, research, and collaboration on numerous endeavors throughout the Seattle University community, the Office of Diversity & Inclusion generates original programming and engages in targeted work.
This field, and, as a result, our work, is continuously expanding and evolving. Special Initiatives are mechanisms by which we generate specialized crucial conversations, engage new stakeholders, and inspire a broader response.
