Dr. Belinda Hyppolite, vice president and chief diversity officer, as well as Jonathan Still, associate director of research, assessment and special projects in the Division of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion traveled to Tulsa from Norman to attend the event.
“The times that we get to spend together, getting to know one another on a deeper level, and reflecting on what diversity, equity and inclusion can look like lived out, are so important,” said Dr. Hyppolite. “People need to feel seen, heard and respected in their work environment and in their lives, and the best way to accomplish that is through knowing, and therefore understanding, each other better.”
Dr. Hyppolite and others who attended the event took a few minutes to share what the word “belonging” means to them in a short video. Be sure to check it out below.
