“Equity is about pulling up more chairs at a table. There’s just more chairs at the table. We’re not taking chairs away from other people. And the importance of lifting everybody up and creating community truly makes all of us better people.” – Dr. Bayan
“One thought has been really important for me throughout this process, and that is to remain curious; to not just assume you know everything about a problem, to learn as we go, and to allow the people that we’re working with to teach us so that we can do better for the next group of students or individuals.” -Dr. Van Abel
