Equity Fellows By Ohio Wesleyan University
DELAWARE, Ohio – Ohio Wesleyan University is pleased to announce its inaugural cohort of Equity Fellows. This spring, these 25 faculty will embark on a collaborative initiative aimed at fostering equity and anti-racism at Ohio Wesleyan.
The Equity Fellows program has been designed by Drs. Lisa Anderson-Levy and Catherine M. Orr of Beloit College, and is modeled after their innovative “Decolonizing Pedagogies” Project. Drs. Ashley Biser, Assistant Provost for Curriculum and Equity, and Nancy Comorau, Associate Professor of English, will work with Drs. Anderson-Levy and Orr to share their transformative process with the OWU campus.
