YEAR IN REVIEW:
+ Our 40th Anniversary
+ CRC Diversity and Inclusion Plan
+ Highlights: Theories in action, Concentration Declaration Day, DIAP action
+ CRC 40th Anniversary! 🎉Forty years ago in 1976, a group of students convinced the administration of the need for a peer advising center dedicated to helping students navigate the New Curriculum. The Resource Center (renamed in 2005) started out as an office in Faunce House, to where it relocated in 2010.
Reflecting on the work of the CRC, we focused on these questions: + How has the open curriculum impacted what and how students learn? + How has it impacted teaching, scholarship, and advising? + Is it truly open and accessible to all? |
|
+ CRC Diversity & inclusion PLAN
|
We recognize that Brown's Open Curriculum may not feel truly open for some of us. Indeed, taking academic risks, as the curriculum encourages us to do, is a concept we at the CRC hope to unpack. In 2016-2017, the CRC developed a working plan to continue our work in being an intentional, accessible, and impact-driven center.
|
"We envision a learning environment at the CRC where all students regardless of race, gender expression, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, religious affiliation, or physical, emotional, learning ability, feel supported, thrive, and can develop their capacities to fully engage with Brown's open curriculum, and with their own unique learning process, in preparing to be future scholars, leaders and citizens."
