The Diversity & Unity Retreat is a two day retreat that brings together undergraduate and graduate students for self discovery and learning related to leadership and diversity.
The retreat brings together individuals from various social identity backgrounds including race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation, gender, ability, and other groups. Participants return with new knowledge of diversity, skills to promote tolerance and understanding, friends with whom to continue interacting and networking and a sense of responsibility to serve as an ally to social identity groups other than those to which they belong.
The Diversity Retreat is an important tradition of the University of Denver. The Diversity Retreat will be held on campus for the first time and will seek to develop student understanding, leadership, and positive activism in new ways.
Making this event possible takes a campus wide effort....
