DESCRIPTION:\nDr. Estela Mara Bensimon will argue in this Dean's Diversity
Lecture that the term "equity" is much more than a word to be sprinkled in
to educational discourse as one might do with salt to season a bland meal.
To meaningfully and intelligently discuss equity and equity-mindedness\,
Dr. Bensimon believes society must be clear that it is whiteness—not the a
chievement gap—that produces and sustains racial inequality in higher educ
ation. The authentic exercise of equity and equity-mindedness\, she will a
rgue in the lecture\, requires explicit attention to structural inequality
and institutionalized racism\, which demands system-changing responses.\n
Dr. Bensimon is a professor of higher education at the Rossier School of E
ducation and the director of the Center for Urban Education at the Univers
ity of Southern California.\nSponsor: College of Education\; Office of Com
munity College Research and Leadership\; and Office of the Vice Chancellor
for Diversity\, Equity and Inclusion\nCan’t make this event in person? Li
sten to it via livestreaming at \;education.illinois.edu/live. \;
