Salus University Development Day Offers A Sense of Belonging

If you don’t feel like you belong, it’s really hard to convince students that they belong.

That was the message from Terrell Strayhorn, PhD, to faculty and staff at Salus University Development Day on January 6th.

Dr. Strayhorn, currently a professor of higher education in women’s gender and sexuality study at Illinois State University, where he also directs the university’s PhD program, was one of the featured speakers for UD Day.

Recognized as one of the country’s top diversity scholars and the author of 12 books on the topic, Dr. Strayhorn was invited to Salus by Juliana Mosley-Williams, PhD, special assistant to the president for diversity, equity and inclusion to talk specifically about “belonging” and how the university can be more intentional in creating a culture of belonging.
