While the rhetoric of diversity is valued in higher education in Minnesota, the reality of diversity can be harsh, especially for those who occupy minority status as both teachers and learners in University classrooms. Evaluations, rather than being a legitimate assessment of learning, often used to punish instructors who are different, especially those who teach on topics that intersects with race, gender, sexuality, nationality and other forms of difference. Join us as we explore the racial politics of teaching and learning, and how it impacts formal assessments of teaching and learning.
