Update Bookmarks to Housing Hub

Several months ago, our Division launched the Housing Hub as the new intranet and central resource for Housing staff. If you had the old intranet address (intranet.housing.wisc.edu) bookmarked or set as your browser home page and have not yet updated the link to the new site, please update it now. Since the Hub launched, there has been a redirect in place that sent users to the Hub if they entered the old intranet URL, but that redirect is not permanent and may eventually stop working, so we recommend you update this to avoid any future interruption. If you manage any sites or resources that still link to the old intranet, please update those as well.

Break the Bias Habit Training: What We Learned

Many Housing staff recently went through an online training session about breaking the bias habit. Our presenter, Dr. Will Cox, is the founder of Inequity Agents of Change and has over 15 years of research dedicated towards reducing bias, creating inclusion, and promoting equity. We learned how unintentional bias is a habit that can be broken and how to reduce bias with some effective tools.
