inclusion

UC Berkeley opened its new Disability Cultural Community Center, or DCC, on Tuesday in the Hearst Field Annex, becoming one of the first college campuses to create a center dedicated solely to the disabled community. 

Abortion isn’t just a women's right; it is also an LGBTQ+ right. It is a human right.

While BUSD has already made strong efforts towards creating an inclusive and supportive community for queer children, there is still room for improvement. 

Sports stories aren’t usually given too much weight in discussions around journalistic equity or newsroom diversity. Here’s why they should be.

Re-entry students at UC Berkeley, too, have been heavily underrepresented, despite making up one-fifth of undergraduates nationwide.

It’s almost as if draping a binocular strap over your shoulders marked you as a member of an exclusive club, and in some ways, maybe it did.

Not immediately acting on student concerns about a hostile environment is just one example of the ways campus continues to fail underrepresented minorities.

UC Berkeley shouldn’t reflect the exclusion that marks much of our world today. Campus should be a community where students of all backgrounds feel they can belong and thrive. 

The Div Com Desk will translate weekly discussions about diversity and newsroom culture to the larger community through stories ranging in style and topic.
