Reflecting on Chattel Slavery's Role in Higher Education - A Student Perspective

The Committee on Institutional Equity and Diversity (CIED) invites you to join us for a continued insightful discussion on: Pedagogy Grounded in Reality: Incorporating Chattel Slavery’s Contribution to Higher Education – Reflections from the Student Population.

In March 2024, SPS CIED hosted a workshop that incorporated the results of a qualitative study examining the exclusion of chattel slavery in the teaching of the history of American business (Baptist, 2014; Katznelson, 2005). Participants were encouraged to enhance their research knowledge and reshape their pedagogy to include the true origins of educational concepts and theories. When developing curricula, new knowledge was encouraged by highlighting the integration of a Symptomatic Thought Process® (Ridley, 2022).

We are now offering Round Two of the workshop, including students’ participation in a discussion examining the student experience with implementing a Symptomatic Thought Process® within their research.
