Student Affairs Diversity Initiatives (SADI)
The Student Affairs Diversity Initiatives (SADI) are designed to empower, support, and assist African American and Hispanic/Latinx students in achieving their goal of earning a college degree.
About SADI
Conception
In the fall of 2009, the university introduced a new mentoring program, the African American Male Initiative, to improve retention and graduation rates for first-time entering freshmen African American male students.
Dr. Charles Donaldson, Dr. Logan Hampton, Dean Darryl McGee, and Harvell Howard established the new program to provide intrusive mentoring and advising to increase academic achievement.
At the conclusion of the fall semester, 44 out of 58 AAMI new student participants ended their first semester at UALR in good academic standing. Fifty-five percent earned a 3.0 GPA or higher, and 91% of AAMI participants returned for the spring semester.
The struggle for land rights at IhumÄtao reveals the âsecretâ of capitalist society in Aotearoa much more dramatically than the case of Mr Peel on the Swan River in Western Australia. MÄori land was privatized by confiscation, collective labour privatized as wage-labour, and the value produced on the land expropriated as absolute rent for many generations. The recent âsettlementâ at IhumÄtao ignores this history, nationalizes the land from the private owners, yet expects the mana whenua to jointly manage a public reserve with some provision for housing. Private landowners are claiming Government has set a precedent to nationalise their property. Racists object to Maori breaking âone law for allâ to get any land rights. Meanwhile MÄori self-determination (Tino rangatiratanga) is patronized.
