Social Justice Training Institute:
The Student Experience

Institute Goal

To provide students with an intensive laboratory experience where they can focus on their own learning and development to increase their multicultural competencies as social justice change agents.

Seminar Objectives

1. To deepen understanding of the dynamics of oppression at the individual, group, cultural, and systems levels
   
2. To explore dominant and subordinated group dynamics
   
3. To broaden understanding of the breadth and depth of institutionalized oppression.
   
4. To examine the impact of oppression on ourselves as members of this global community
   
5. To provide an opportunity for students to develop a Social Justice Commitment (SJC) which will focus on personal growth goals and an intervention that will impact their home campus or community.
