Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in Writing Across the Curriculum

From UW-Madison: Diversity is a source of strength, creativity, and innovation for UW–Madison. We value the contributions of each person and respect the profound ways their identity, culture, background, experience, status, abilities, and opinion enrich the university community. We commit ourselves to the pursuit of excellence in teaching, research, outreach, and diversity as inextricably linked goals. The University of Wisconsin–Madison fulfills its public mission by creating a welcoming and inclusive community for people from every background — people who, as students, faculty, and staff, serve Wisconsin and the world.

The WAC program strives to support instructors to create writing assignments that are inclusive of all students and that are assessed in an equitable manner. Please visit the WAC Sourcebook, Locally Sourced, for more information on designing inclusive writing assignments, inclusive assessment, fostering inclusive peer review, and more.
