Join Out in Public and the Ford School's Graduate Career Services for an online-only conversation with Diana Maurer (MPP '90), a director at GAO, on her career overseeing defense logistics issues, coming out, and transitioning while working at a federal agency.
The 2020 Tanner Lecture will be given by prominent philosopher Charles Mills. The lecture will look at racial justice from a philosophical point of view: whether it’s worth singling out, how it’s demarcated from other kinds of justice, what are its different dimensions, the relation between distributive and corrective justice, which normative framework to employ, etc.
This event is open to Ford School students, faculty, and staff, and guests of the Center for Public Policy in Diverse Societies. The Diversity Center hosts Professor Sara Soderstrom and her research team for an interactive discussion on how racial and other social identifies affect student feelings of inclusion on the University of Michigan’s campus.

The hallmark of the Center for Public Policy in Diverse Societies is the recognition that public policy initiatives must be understood within the context of growing societal diversity.
