Allies in Training
Do you desire to be an ally for underserved, marginalized, and underrepresented groups but feel uncomfortable or unqualified? You're not alone!
Join the Allies in Training (AIT) Canvas group, a supportive community within the College of Arts and Sciences for those who want to commit to self-improvement and overcome personal barriers to actively build a community that encourages, supports, and celebrates equity, diversity, and inclusion.

AIT aims to:
The intrinsic and extrinsic benefits of one's commitment and accountability to allyship are innumerable but not always [immediately] apparent. When there is no finish line in what seems like a race to a more progressive world, it's easy (and okay) to get discouraged and complacent. Persistence is the key, despite setbacks. Our impact will be evident in how many people race alongside us in the same direction over time. Trust your place in this process, and don't give up!
