Linguistic Servingness at HSIs

For the final episode of season 3 I talk to Vanessa Varela, Assistant Professor in Education, and Jason Meyler, Associate Professor of Spanish at Mount Mary University, a small women’s college HSI in Wisconsin. In this episode we dive into HSI NOW efforts in Milwaukee, the evolution of servingness at Mount Mary University, and the importance of acknowledging language and multilingualism in servingness efforts. Our guests highlight Mount Mary’s multilingual strategic plan, which is embedded in their HSI philosophy, and the Culture, Classroom, and Multilingual Learners Workshop, which builds capacity among faculty, adjuncts, and tutors to deliver academic content in diverse linguistic classrooms. This is the first ¿Qué pasa, HSIs? episode to unpack linguistic servingness in HSI, but it won’t be the last as this topic is truly multidimensional as Vanessa and Jason highlight. Listen in and learn about linguistic mobility at HSIs.
