Please join us for a dialogue about “The Differences Between Fitting In and Belonging” on Thursday, May 16, 12-1pm. Explore how we perceive the meaning of fitting in and belonging in relation to our experiences with assimilation and acculturation. 

The ICEO Community Dialogues is a monthly series that supports inclusion and belonging at MIT. These facilitated conversations serve as a forum for community members to learn from each other and their shared experiences. Each dialogue is a chance to explore assumptions and have candid conversations about issues that impact us as a community. 

Outcomes:

• Opportunities for all MIT community members to “come as they are” and gather, listen, share, and reflect  
• Conversations where curiosity, openness, respect, and belonging are modeled 
• Connections across a diversity of backgrounds, perspectives, identities, and experiences

This virtual event is open to all MIT community members.

We are committed to making this event fully accessible to everyone who wants to attend. Please let us know if there is anything you need to participate fully in this event by emailing vulfp@mit.edu.
