About the Gosin Center for Equity and Inclusion
Welcome to the Gosin Center for Equity and Inclusion at Pace University. We're dedicated to promoting diversity and fostering inclusive environments for all. Through engaging lectures, events, and community outreach, we share our commitment to equity with the university and beyond. By raising funds and supporting engaged scholarship, we strive to empower students, faculty, and staff in their pursuit of equity and inclusion. The Gosin Center facilitates the development of equitable literacy, inclusive curricula, and anti-oppression pedagogies, while also assisting academic units in their research on these vital topics. We provide spaces for collaborative inquiry, co-curricular engagement, and community partnerships, nurturing a culture of inclusivity and belonging. Additionally, the Gosin Center champions student career development and entrepreneurship, guiding them towards success in their chosen paths. Join us in creating a more equitable future for all.
Gosin Advisory Board
At the Gosin Center, we're all about harnessing the power of shared equity leadership (SEL). Our Gosin Advisory Board is comprised of a dynamic mix of students, staff, and faculty members from our vibrant NYC, Pleasantville, and Haub Law campuses.
What Is Shared Equity Leadership?
Instead of the usual focus on an individual leader’s traits and behaviors, it’s all about teamwork and collective leadership. SEL is a shift from 'me' to 'us'! This approach isn't just talk. We’re embedding equity and inclusivity into everything we do, from classrooms to community outreach. With students, faculty, staff, University leaders, and community partners working hand in hand, we're building a Pace Community where everyone feels valued and heard.
Gosin Signature Events
Join us as we spotlight engaging lectures from Pace's scholarly minds and dynamic voices from beyond our community, all aimed at inspiring the Pace Community. Be part of our vibrant engagements and gatherings, where we shine a spotlight on the Gosin Center's impactful work within the University and across diverse communities.
