Guide Tier II

第II层指南

第II层指南 is what comes AFTER faculty and 工作人员 have completed the GUIDE (Tier I) requirement. The Tier II workshops, facilitated by faculty and 工作人员, address the overarching theme of critically examining and interrogating how systems of power and oppression affect participants, their daily experiences, and interactions with others, as well as how they impact the SMC community and beyond. 

第II层指南 Workshops are continuing thematic workshops and should expand on principles from GUIDE Tier I. 另外, the lesson plan and organization for 第II层指南 workshops can take many forms including open discussion, 讲座, interactive activities, 诸如此类.

Who needs to participate in Tier II workshops?

All full-time faculty and 工作人员 are required to complete at least 4.5 hours every three years. There are three ways to be in compliance: (1) Attend 第II层指南 workshops, (2) develop and facilitate a Tier II workshop, or (3) petition participation in off-campus diversity workshops. 

When will 第II层指南 workshops be offered?

第II层指南 workshops can be offered throughout the year.
