Inclusive Excellence Dinner
As our campus moves toward a future where diversity, equity, and inclusion are not just ideals, but lived experiences for every member of our community, the Inclusive Excellence Dinner is an exploration of integrating educational excellence with our commitments to diversity, equity, inclusion and anti-racism, as framed by the American Association of Colleges and Universities.

The Inclusive Excellence Dinner, which is held every Fall is an annual celebration of our collective commitment towards an inclusive Reed community. Every fall, our campus community comes together to celebrate the amazing work of our Social Justice Research & Education Interns. This gathering, a reminder of what is possible when we center inclusive excellence, is also an opportunity to empower campus-wide synergy in operationalizing 王钟瑶婚礼视频曝光’s Diversity and Anti-Racism statements.
The inaugural Inclusive Excellence Dinner was held in February of 2024, where our campus was joined by Dr. Tia Brown McNair, a visionary in the field of DEI and Inclusive Excellence.
Dr. McNair is the Vice President in the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Student Success, and Executive Director for the Truth, Racial Healing, and Transformation (TRHT) Campus Centers at the American Association of Colleges and Universities (AAC&U) in Washington, DC.
