A virtual event to discuss the formation of a Jewish Employee Affinity Group is scheduled for Tuesday, June 29, from 3 to 4 p.m. CT. The meeting will be conducted via Zoom.
To attend, RSVP to jinexa.rivera@vanderbilt.edu.
Those who identify as Jewish, the parents of Jewish children, other family members and friends are encouraged to attend. The meeting is open to all Vanderbilt employees, including staff, faculty and postdoctoral scholars, regardless of identity.
The goal of the listening session is to gather input, ask questions and offer suggestions about how a Jewish Employee Affinity Group at Vanderbilt can best serve this community, including creating programming for Jewish individuals and their families.
The listening session will be facilitated by:
- Linzie Treadway, project manager, Office for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion
- Jinexa Rivera, project manager, Office for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion
- Tricia Blumenthal, deputy director, Undergraduate Admissions
This event is part of a new university initiative to create Employee Affinity Groups supported by the Office for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion in partnership with Human Resources. Other groups in the initiative include the Association of Vanderbilt Black Faculty and Staff, the LGBTQI+ affinity group and the Golden Dores.
