Spring '24

Transformation Today is a series of workshops across LMU that promote cultural humility. Open to all students, staff, and faculty, Transformation Today brings together the LMU community to further develop a coalition of care centralized around cultural humility and cura personalis. Although change often occurs slowly at a systemic level when working towards justice, let us make a Transformation beginning Today.

Our work in DEI is ongoing, so please check back for updates!
