Triandiflou Institute’s Immediate Impacts

The Triandiflou Institute has already begun to make an impact in changing campus. Among its many activities, the institute has:

Partnered with the El Hindi Center for Dialogue and Action to develop and offer intentional dialogue experiences focused on race and identity to key campus constituents.

Compiled a listing of holidays and remembrance days related to marginalized and/or diverse identities to create an “Inclusivity Playbook” and comprehensive strategic plan providing the community with educational materials, programming and transformative experiences for each.
Hosted an open house of its Penfield Library facilities for the campus community.
Led a panel discussion to explore the life experiences of Lakers of Latin or Hispanic descent.
