California State University, Dominguez Hills strives to become the model urban university. Part of that charge requires acknowledging when change is necessary, actively listening to our campus community, and maintaining flexibility to evolve our processes and the ways that we engage with one another.During the 2022-23 academic year, we began hosting difficult conversations on a number of topics. As an institution grounded in social justice, equity, and inclusion, we know that difficulty can create reform. We will not shy away from the discourse. After all, we are a learning institution, and at all levels, we can learn from one another.
