Social Justice Commitment
Social Justice Commitment
Text of Social Justice Commitment:
At San Diego City College, we commit to closing the opportunity gaps perpetuated by structural injustice in higher education. Closing the opportunity gap means dismantling the inequitable distribution of resources, opportunities, and policies to achieve parity in educational outcomes for historically marginalized student populations.
We commit to providing an inclusive and welcoming educational environment by recognizing and supporting the intersection of our community members' multiple identities and roles through culturally-responsive pedagogy and equity-minded practices, behaviors and policies.
We commit to sustain a teaching, learning, and work culture that envisions and actively validates and uplifts our diverse community’s lived experiences to ensure a strength-based structural and cultural change at our institution.
