Inclusive Training at the Law School

Dr. Jesus Trevino, USD's new Associate Vice President for Diversity, presented an inclusive training workshop at the Law School this week, hosted by Interim Dean Geu. Dr. Trevino's desire is to implement a strategy of inclusive excellence at USD as he did at the University of Denver where minority students represented only 11% of the student body in 2002 and increased to 20% as of this past summer. Dr. Trevino stated that "inclusive excellence is a transformation of the University of South Dakota into an institution that embeds diversity and inclusiveness into everything it does." Faculty and staff attended Monday's inclusive training session, the first such session at USD. These individuals look forward to the part they can play in diversity.
