We CHOSE to teach, work, and learn here because, at this institution, we value diversity and inclusion. We are a community from DIFFERENT communities. We are stronger for our diversity. We are wiser because we represent different perspectives, backgrounds, and identities.
Please CHOOSE to celebrate our community with the Department of Biology Diversity Committee. Bring a story (of how you felt welcomed in Biology). Bring a small plate of small food (tapas) to share. Bring a friend. Bring a “virtual candle” of light as we go into winter to remind us all that we can keep the fires of knowledge burning safely for each other.

Hope to see you there, 
Grateful for you either way,
 
The Department of Biology Diversity Committee
