Supporting MENA, Jewish, and Muslim Students: Empathy, Education & Safety
In recent months, the escalation of the Israel/Palestine conflict has presented significant challenges for educational institutions worldwide. Faculty, staff, and administrators are increasingly finding themselves amid a delicate situation where they are expected to take stances, issue statements, and empathetically listen to students voicing their distress, frustration, and concerns about the uncertain future. Drs. Brian Van Brunt, Jacques Whitfield, and Brielle Stark-Adler offer valuable insights and strategies for supporting students during these turbulent times. Drawing on their extensive experience and the principles outlined in the book, How to Engage in Difficult Conversations on Identity, Race, and Politics in Higher Education, our panel provides actionable advice on creating inclusive and supportive environments for all students.
We are sharing this episode both to give you a sense of what the sessions are like and to provide some guidance on this timely and often difficult topic.
