Pairing the Racial Justice Minor with a Major

Designed to accompany any major, the Minor in Racial Justice aims to prepare graduates to make a positive impact in their respective fields.

It could be paired with Nursing to address the disparities in health care, with Political Science to work toward creating equitable policies, or with Business to become a manager who understands the importance of designing trauma-informed workplaces.

These are only a few examples. Systemic racism impacts all areas, which is why this minor is applicable to any major or field.
