Jayanti Owens Ways Quotations

We began with an afternoon of brainstorming ideas about what we wanted the conference to address. We let these ideas sit for a couple weeks and continued e-mailing comments over the e-mail list-serve before meeting again and narrowing down our brainstormed themes, cutting and pasting different ideas in different ways until we finally came to a theme we liked. There was a lot of debating and melding of ideas.

The conference is looking to address ways in which liberal arts colleges are not completely friendly to people from non-dominant groups and how we can institute policies and programs to change that.
