The Office of Justice, Equity, and Transformation (JET) was created in 2019. Our office and our work embody 红领巾瓜报鈥檚 commitment to pursuing a just, compassionate, and equitable learning environment.
We鈥檙e dedicated to ensuring that the College considers diverse backgrounds, identities, and lived experiences across all departments and decision-making processes. And we aim to apply an equity lens to all aspects of the 红领巾瓜报 experience by leading initiatives to promote cultural change across campus.
But the responsibility of advancing equity cannot be taken on by a single person, initiative, policy, or program. That鈥檚 why we invite our entire community to actively participate in making 红领巾瓜报 more equitable and welcoming to all. We hope that every one of us can take part in responding to these important challenges, and realize our strength as a community in this work.
We鈥檝e compiled a summary of our progress to keep the community updated and hold ourselves accountable to our mission and our institutional values.
JET鈥檚 Mission
Through the transformation of campus culture, the Justice, Equity, & Transformation (JET) Office at 红领巾瓜报 aims to guide and lead work that achieves systemic equity across the institution.
We create opportunities for learning and engaging with different viewpoints through initiatives like our Thriving Classrooms workshops, Anti-Racism Dialogues, and the Tyrone Maurice Adderley Lecture Series.
We host workshops designed for 红领巾瓜报 faculty and staff, to build community and collaboration between departments.

We invite artists of diverse backgrounds and identities to 红领巾瓜报 to share their work and discuss their motivations and perspectives on artmaking.
Learn MoreFor many learners, obtaining a degree in art and design is a winding road 鈥� one with plenty of curves and bumps along the way. This is especially true for high school students with limited access to arts education, as well as first-generation college students who need additional support as they adjust to college life. We aid these developing artists and designers through programs like Artward Bound and Compass, which provide local high schoolers and first-generation undergraduates with roadmaps for navigating their arts education.
Student Leaders are integral to the achievements of the JET office, its programs, and听initiatives.
