Hello.

Welcome to my blog. I use this space to share what I am learning about how to end violence in this lifetime.

I am looking for campus partners interested in Taking Bold Action.

I am looking for campus partners interested in Taking Bold Action.

Taking Bold Action is an opportunity for campuses participating in the Ohio Department of Higher Education's Changing Campus Culture initiative. This project brings together a variety of unique campuses to support each other in applying an anti-oppression approach to the collection of annual “Benchmark Surveys.”

Taking Bold Action takes place over two years, and will convene two cohorts:

  • TBA Cohort 1: Academic Year 2021-2022

  • TBA Cohort 2: Academic Year 2022-2023

On June 30th 2022, campuses from TBA Cohort 1 came together to share key findings, action opportunities, and plans for next steps. This was the culmination and celebration of our first year. We reviewed successes in partnering TIX Coordinators with other campus offices, increasing response and completion rates among priority groups, and being more inclusive and equitable in our data use practices.

We are currently accepting applications for TBA Cohort 2, with hopes of enrolling twelve additional campuses for next academic year.

My gratitude goes to Keshia White for her help with web design. I came to her with limits on both budget and time. At each step of her hallmark design process, Keshia inspired new joy and creativity for carrying this work forward.
