2021-2022 Academic Year: Visioning Sessions
During the 2021-2022 academic year, the Office for Community Belonging is inviting members of all Pepperdine University student groups to engage in a focused 30-minute Zoom "Discovery" session. Preceded by a brief survey, the purpose of these sessions is to discover what strengths upon which Pepperdine can build to create a more authentic community of belonging.
After these sessions, we will assemble data and echo it back to students to gain their input on envisioning programs and initiatives they would like to see enacted. We will involve staff and faculty in the process concurrently. The ultimate goal is an OCB Strategic plan to be completed in summer 2022. If you are interested in attending one of these sessions, please contact our office at belonging@pepperdine.edu, and we will follow up with the next available session date.
