We hope to support any further development deriving from those data. We hope to make necessary shifts to center student voice in our committee\u2019s work, including master\u2019s level and undergraduate students. Student voice is slow work and will require incremental shifts. The committee considered several possible action items: further examining DSOC statements for additional patterns, requesting time at faculty and\/or faculty\/staff meetings, implementing peer observation practices, and creating a Canvas shell to be shared with faculty and staff with resources related to equity and social justice. This conversation led to a more specific conversation about land acknowledgements and their constraints. Because land acknowledgements can be a hollow gesture, we discussed alternatives, like learning more about Indigenous-led work in one\u2019s area, while also honoring the labor that went into the composition of CU Denver\u2019s land acknowledgment, written by Gracie RedShirt Tyon, of the Oglala Lakota Nation.
