This conversation is centered around the experiences that promote or detract from sense of belonging on campus. Belonging, as defined by the [OEDIB Foundational Concepts and Affirming Language Guide](https://edib.harvard.edu/files/dib/files/oedib_foundational_concepts_and_affirming_language_12.7.21.pdf?m=1638887160), connotes full membership in the Harvard community. This entails success in achieving not merely formal participation but also rewarding participation for all members of a diverse campus community in the opportunities, resources, and decision-making structures of the campus.  
  
Accountability to one another is important and essential to creating a sense of belonging. This conversation will explore concepts such as: expectation setting around academic safety; what do we or should we promise/provide in terms of safety or recourse related to microaggressions, triggers, controversial topics, polarizing speakers, etc.; freedom of expression and ideological safety; residential support; inclusive pedagogy; academic support and resources; Title IX and gender equity resources.
