RE: Off-Campus, University-Sanctioned Event
FROM: Karen Smolarek, Director – Student Support Services and Martin Olague, Director – Center of Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging
Student Support Services (SSS) and the Center of Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging (DIBs) are sponsoring an off-campus activity and a student in your course might miss class time. The offices of the Provost and the Associate Vice Chancellor of the Academic Affairs require that students provide this notice to you no later than one week prior to their scheduled activity to be in compliance with appropriate polices. Your consideration in allowing them to complete course assignments and work in compliance with these university’s policies* is appreciated. Thank you for your support and cooperation. Additional details are below.
Dates & Times (“activities should not be scheduled during the final exam period or one week prior to final examinations”): Friday March 31, Saturday April 1st, and Sunday April 2nd, 2017.
Activity: The SSS Program and the DIBs office will participate in the American Multicultural Leadership Conference (AMSLC) at the University of Wisconsin – LaCrosse campus on Friday March 31, Saturday April 1st, and Sunday April 2nd 2017. Hosted by various University of Wisconsin campuses, the annual AMSLC provides an opportunity for underrepresented students to come together and engage in lively discussions, hearing inspiring speakers, develop networks, and celebrate their achievements in order to foster leadership and excellence.
Academic Rationale for Absence: Past student and staff attendees have found AMSLC to be a valuable educational and leadership experience for all students. This conference is highly engaging, eye-opening, and inspiring. Our hope is that students will leave with new perspectives, awareness of their own strengths, new professional and personal network connections, and a growing confidence in their possibilities.
