Campus ChampionDiversity Faculty Fellow Marcus Bell, assistant sociology professor, lectures on crime and inequality and serves on committees that uphold the university’s core values of diversity, equity and inclusion. “Important topics people care the most about often come with political partisanship,” he says. “For example, crime and the police response can be an either-or conversation, but most people grapple with both sides to varying degrees.” Marcus presents his ideas in his TEDx SUNY Cortland talk on “Freedom Dreaming” Thursday, May 4. He’s one of 10 speakers, along with SUNY Cortland’s Performing Arts Lecturer Renee Heitmann and Modern Languages Lecturer Shena Driscoll Salvato, who will share their thoughts for a better world.
