The current racial awakening following the murders of Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, George Floyd, and other Black Americans has caused many higher ed institutions to consider how they can actively work to reduce and eliminate discrimination, including in the language they use.

During this thought-provoking conversation, three panelists will share efforts that are underway on their campuses, and together we will explore alternatives to oppressive terminology embedded in our websites, code repositories and beyond.

Join us to share your experiences and exchange viewpoints.

Panelists:
* Sara Stubbs - Director of Customer Service and Support, University of Oregon
* Joel F. W. Price - Technology Outreach Team Lead, Swarthmore College
* Scott Emery - Director, IT Relations, Office of the CIO, Oregon State University
