Initiatives

The Black Faculty Speaker Series will create a campus culture in which Black thought, experience, and creativity are visible and vital. Each visiting speaker provides a unique voice and perspective on Black futurity. Afrofuturism is this year’s theme for the Black Faculty Speaker Series. It is an orientation or a way of thinking that defies simple classification.

The University of Arizona welcomes current post-doctoral fellows from all disciplines across the United States to apply for the Steps in the Scholar Journey Program. The program aims to nurture the pathway to the professorate in culturally meaningful and responsive ways.
