Many of our Towson students who are preparing to become teachers may not know what to do or how to deal with the current climate in K-12 schools. They may also be unprepared to handle other controversial issues that could arise in their classrooms.
The Diversity Committee seeks to hold on-going conversations among colleagues to brainstorm ways to support our students. We hope you will check back often to find out the details of these conversations, and we hope you will find time to join us.
