[IMPORTANT DETAILS]
Students are not required to have their $200 initial housing payment made to be eligible to win. However, before any student can be assigned to a room, the initial housing payment must be paid.
The additional student who is pulled into the room by a winner must have their housing and meal plan agreement signed and paid their $200 initial payment at the time of the room selection. They must also be a new incoming student admitted at BGSU to qualify.
This prize does not offer any discount on the housing rate, and each student assigned to a room through this giveaway will be responsible for the full payment of the room in accordance with their student bill. Cancellations to the agreement by May 1, 2023, will receive a 100% refund and will not be billed. Cancelations after May 1, 2023, will be granted in accordance with the forfeiture schedule.
If the winner does not submit an eligible student to be their roommate by the Office of Residence Life deadline, the remaining space will be forfeited.
Once a student has won one of the 20 prizes, they will no longer be eligible to win the remaining prizes for this giveaway. Students who have agreed to be the roommate of one of the winners will also not be eligible.
The beds selected by the winner and their roommate must be assigned to the same building. Any student who is assigned to a room through this giveaway does not have the right to their room assignment. If one of the students decides to do a room change into a different room/building or cancels their contract, the vacant bed will open up to standard room selection, and a random roommate may be assigned.
Returning students who will be enrolled full-time at BGSU are not eligible to win.

Being able to support Black, Indigenous and all People of Color (BIPOC) is of critical need at BGSU. Provost Whitehead has indicated that we continue to see striking disparities in retention rates and graduation rates between the majority white student body and BIPOC students. While many scholars agree that the history and continued influence of white supremacy in higher education contribute to these present-day disparities, many faculty are left wondering what can be done now to disrupt these patterns. Utilizing an equity self-audit tool to deeply explore curriculum and pedagogical decisions can assist faculty in engaging more intentionally in antiracist practices. This workshop will introduce one such tool; Participants will be guided to begin the critical self-reflection process of their own teaching praxis.
Learning Outcomes:
To increase my understanding of the influences of colonization and white supremacy has on the context of higher education, and the role antiracism has in restoring equity and justice
To examine audit tools which can be used to aide in the critical self-reflection of pedagogical decisions
To begin critically reflecting on the influences on my teaching practices and identify spaces to move the needle towards antiracist education
