-: My name is Michele Deramo.
I'm the assistant provost for Diversity Education
in the Office for Inclusion in Diversity.
Probably you'll want to get some, do some coursework
in applied psychology.
Probably wanna have a good, solid grounding in sociology.
A lot of when we talk about diversity,
we're usually talking about social structures
and group social identities.
So, need to understand
the framework for that.
'Cause it's not just about difference.
I mean, there's a lot of very superficial diversity talk.
But to really talk about group social identities
you need to have that sociological theory.
