Educational Campaigns

Here are some examples of our campus campaigns and collaborations. We invite you to reach out and connect if you have ideas for new projects. We’re here to discuss your thoughts, help brainstorm, and share existing resources!

Tabling Event: Tell us….

We love tabling in the diag. It’s a great way to bring people together to think about things in a new way. At this event, we asked students to answer the various questions about identity and community.

Poster Series: Campus Climate Support

We created this poster series to encourage everyone on campus to do their part to make campus a safe and welcoming place.

On a maize to blue gradient background, copy reads Connect. Better our community together. Our campus climate is healthy when we all show respect for each other’s needs, abilities and potential.

On a maize to blue gradient background, copy reads Care. If someone needs help, choose to act. This headline is followed by bullet points that read Be an active bystander. Report incidents and concerns to the university. Seek support and resources from the university. If you have a campus climate concern, the Campus Climate Support Team is here to help.

Instagram Campaign: Office Highlights

Our “Office Highlights” campaign focused on different offices on campus that promote respect, inclusion, and belonging. Student Life offices featured include Spectrum Center, International Center, Wolverine Wellness, and others.

Maize and blue graphic features a group of illustrated students talking to each other. The copy reads What is Expect Respect? Expect Respect is a unique partnership among students, faculty, and staff working to unite our community.

Maize and blue graphic reads What does Expect Respect do? We collaborate with student organizations on campus to promote social justice and inclusivity. We create educational campaigns that target issues of discrimination such as racism, homophobia, and sexism, as well as other forms. Interested in working with us? Reach out to ExpectRespect@umich.edu.

Maize and blue graphic reads Why Office Highlights? Our Office Highlights series shines a light on the offices across the University of Michigan community that are actively promoting respect, inclusion, and belonging. By highlighting their work we hope to recognize the people and initiatives that make campus a more supportive and welcoming space. Through this, we aim to encourage continued efforts toward building a more inclusive campus for everyone.

Flyer: Beyond the Diag

We created this flyer to share at Beyond the Diag Housing Fairs. It’s a way to encourage students to be an active part of the positive community on and off campus.

Small acts of kindness whether in shared spaces, daily interactions or local events. Patience. Recognizing unseen experiences, offering compassion without judgement, and approaching interactions with empathy. Responsibility. Approaching interactions with intention and integrity, so that we shape a community where everyone feels valued and respected.
