Diversity as a Learning Goal

Why DSJ courses?

The University has a special concern for the poor and marginalized and a responsibility to promote the dignity, rights and responsibilities of all persons and peoples. CAP contributes to these efforts throughout its curriculum but in a more focused way in the Diversity and Social Justice courses. CAP DSJ courses aim to engage dimensions of intersectionality, bias, intercultural competence, and social justice.
