ARTF Feedback
The Anti-Racism Task Force was established to help improve the institutional culture of the School of Music, and to create educational policies and practices that are actively anti-racist. Above all, we want to create a welcoming and inclusive environment for all students, community members, faculty, and staff. We recognize that we are in a unique moment in history that can lead to meaningful and lasting reformative change, and seek to align the School of Music with Sacramento State’s commitment to being an anti-racist multicultural institution.
