===Why is this project important to you, your department, & your Fellows?===
This workshop aims to create a more equitable and inclusive higher education environment, which is a key area of development for my fellow faculty and our Fellows.

===Description===
This project aims to develop, test, and refine a positionality workshop for NDSU faculty, administrators, and staff to help them understand and work through their positionality in order to better serve stakeholders who identify as traditionally marginalized persons in higher education. The final aim of the project is to develop a workshop that would be available to all NDSU faculty, staff, and administrators.
This workshop will focus on the ways to identify one’s positionality (e.g., understanding layers of privilege and how privilege and marginalization impacts one’s position), strategies to respond and work through any resultant guilt and shame with a focus on self-compassion as a tool to develop empathy, and following lessons that focus in on different areas of life (e.g., work, daily life activities, social media) given what one knows about their positionality. These workshops will not cover similar content to books written by BIPOC who discuss the impact of racism and concrete ways that white people can be allies and work toward racial justice – instead, the workshop seeks to help individuals be ready to do the work of being an anti-racist.

# NDSU Faculty
# NDSU Administrators
# NDSU Staff

===Key Milestones===
* December 2022: Develop outline of Positionality Workshop. Complete literature review of best practices in working through positionality (including my own work and research).
* March 2023: Present research on positionality and empathy to the NDSU community in a “Research Brief” (permission to do this already secured). Ask for volunteers to participate in a beta test of the full positionality workshop.
* June 2023: Beta-test Positionality Workshop.
* September 2023: Revise Positionality workshop based on feedback and present to NDSU stakeholders for inclusion in trainings offered to all faculty, staff, and administrators.
* December 2023: Hold first full Positionality Workshop.
* March 2024: Refine based on feedback, and hold second Positionality Workshop.

===An Innovation Portfolio===
* Full lesson plan of Positionality Workshop
* Activity vignettes for Positionality Workshop
* Slides from Positionality Workshop presentations
* Worksheets from Positionality Workshops

The intent of this program is not to replace excellent existing programs and books created by BIPOC who discuss the impact of racism and concrete ways that white people can be allies and work toward racial justice – instead, the goal of this project is to create an intervention that seeks to help individuals be ready to engage with anti-bias programming, learning, and action.
