Fostering Faculty Belonging: Building Inclusive Communities in Higher Education Online

Have you encountered the term "Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging" and want to deepen your understanding of "belonging"? Join Dr. Nicholas D. Hartlep, Robert Charles Billings Endowed Chair and Chair of the Education Studies Department at Berea College, for a webinar focused on fostering faculty belonging. Explore stories and strategies that can be applied to your ACA campus, and leave equipped with actionable resources and tools to implement immediately.


Funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) ADVANCE Program, Award #2304868 aims to address the significant challenge of hiring and retaining women and underrepresented minorities in STEM faculty positions, particularly at small rural institutions in the Appalachian region. As a non-profit consortium of 33 private four-year liberal arts institutions, the Appalachian College Association (ACA) serves Appalachian communities through the transformational work of its faculty, staff, and students. The National Science Foundation’s ADVANCE program is aimed at increasing the participation and advancement of women in academic science and engineering careers, thereby developing a more diverse science and engineering workforce. Any opinions, findings, conclusions, or recommendations expressed are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of the NSF.
