I have worked to unlearn what I thought was the‘ right’ way to create an inclusive classroom experience by ensuring equality to everyone in the room. I now know that to create an inclusive environment, I need to create equity by being aware of the life experiences students bring with them so they feel this is a space where they are valued and can be successful.

My experience with Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at Gwynedd Mercy University has shown me that community is a crucial part of our lives. Finding my place at GMercyU would not have been possible without the welcoming environment I was met with— one filled with understanding, open minds, and compassion.
