At UC Davis, we believe in cultivating an environment where faculty can thrive as researchers, mentors, and innovators. Our programs and actions are driven by a shared commitment to expanding knowledge and discovering solutions to some of the world’s most pressing problems.
This new AFD grant, “Dialogues Across Difference: Solutions to Disruptive Speech in the Learning Environment,” will examine a pressing concern and promises to provide some much-needed support for faculty and other instructional staff that face disruptive speech–politically provocative, harassing, or hate speech, including the display of symbols or objects–that adversely affect teaching and learning.
