The Listen Up! Series was introduced in late 2020 as the College of Fine Arts and Communications seeks to magnify the campus conversation about Diversity, Inclusion and Accessibility.

“This is an ongoing initiative within the college’s Diversity, Inclusion and Accessibility Committee,” said producer and Assistant Dean Bridget Benton. “We are working to connect students in the CFAC with world renowned artists from diverse backgrounds. We are excited to see the meaningful conversations that are challenging us to think deeply about inclusivity and accessibility.”
