This is an action pledge. We recognize that you value equity and have taken steps to understand equity issues on campus better. However, awareness is only the first step in the allyship journey. The Ally Pledge is designed to support you in reflecting on and deepening your understanding of equity issues on campus. It encourages you to take concrete actions as an ally for equity and to promote more action-based allyship on campus. This pledge is open only at the beginning of the semester. Those who take the pledge will be listed on the “See our local allies” page for the respective academic year. At the end of each semester, ally pledgers will be invited to a roundtable meeting that aims to foster cross-campus conversation and collective learning of allyship.
