Student-Athletes participate in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Workshop

On November 29th, over 115 MCC Student-Athletes attended a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Workshop hosted by Dr. Calvin Gantt. Two sessions were conducted as a series of training as the Athletic Department works towards strategic goals to serve student-athletes in a holistic approach. Dr. Gantt led several small group activities that discussed and applied learning experiences with microaggression and inexplicit bias. Students were assessed in the workshop through an exit slips for the department to achieve measurable objectives that align with the overall college mission and vision through aligned departmental goals.

 Athletics Department will continue to serve Student-Athletes holistically and will be planning multiple events and workshops in the Spring Semester. One of them will have a keynote speaker with a panel discussion on the student-athlete experience.

 Aaron Bouyea and Athletics Department would like to thank the following people for making the DEI Workshop a huge success:

Dr. Calvin Gantt, Campus Events Staff, Bailey Burritt, Kaci Chiappone,Craig Dewar and to the Coaches and Student-Athletes that made this event a huge success.
