Tools for 2021 Student Success
Now Available From IEBC

As we approach a full calendar year of coping with the impact of the coronavirus pandemic, and the imperative to reverse the effects of systemic racism in education, colleges across the United States are turning to Caring Campus.
Faculty, staff, and administrators are all playing important roles in this effort. We're energized by your feedback, and commit to continue to use it to improve our tools for you as we move into 2021.
We are sharing our Caring Campus guides and webinars here in this newsletter as a handy resource for you. IEBC will remain engaged, moving forward with you as we stay focused on student success, overcoming the challenges.

Racial Equity Webinar Now Available:
Implement Caring Campus Through An Equity Lens

 Attendees from around the country participated in this IEBC webinar as presenters discussed the concepts of implicit bias, asset-based thinking, and equity-mindedness. IEBC leadership and two college leaders shared their perspectives and experiences implementing Caring Campus with a racial equity lens. The webinar is based on Guide 3 in our series, Providing Student Support Services in Extraordinary Times: A Caring Campus Approach, affirming the commitment made last year by IEBC to help rectify systemic racism and the lack of opportunity for all students to fulfill their educational dreams as part of its Caring Campus work.
