In June 2020, Gibbs College distributed a survey entitled “Taking Action to Create a More Equitable Community.” Over 100 faculty, staff, students and alumni offered their feedback on what the College can do to improve its teaching, community engagement, and programming. The summary findings from this survey were emailed to students on January 25th, and all students are invited to share their feedback during a Zoom Town Hall on Wednesday, February 3rd, 2021, from 12:00 – 1:00 p.m.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Gibbs College Diversity Liaisons, John Harris (johncharris@ou.edu) and Angela Person (a@ou.edu).
