Dear Center for Conservation Biology,



I am reaching out to you today to let you know of an amazing opportunity for you and all associated with the Center for Conservation Biology who play a role in graduate admissions. The workshop series is sponsored by the NSF and free for you and your colleagues to attend. Please share this opportunity with your colleagues at UC Riverside.



The NSF Inclusive Graduate Education Network (IGEN) will hold a two-part workshop series on Equity in Graduate Admissions for the University of California - Riverside. This professional and organizational development opportunity will help foster reflection, healthy discussion, and practical strategies for equitably admitting graduate students.



Each workshop is 2 hours long. The target audience is graduate admissions committees and department leaders, although all are welcome to attend. Register here<https://rit.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJEof-Gtqj8tE9FwUXkRRshg8qwHropHhzN9>


·  Fundamentals of Equity in Graduate Admissions

Thursday, Dec 1, 2022 1:00 PM Pacific Time

In this workshop, data and research are presented about the role of typical admissions practices in maintaining racial/ethnic inequalities in graduate education, as well as strategies for more equitable processes and outcomes.


·  Strategies for Equity-based Holistic Review

Thursday, Dec 8, 2022 1:00 PM Pacific Time

This hands-on workshop will help guide graduate admissions committee members and department leaders to articulate and assess their current admissions practices, learn how to develop an evaluation rubric that can be put to use, and engage in discussions that will help anticipate common challenges that may arise in shifting admissions practices.
