Community Diversity Link

The Community Diversity Link (CDL) is a parent group charged with raising the level of diversity awareness within the OES community. CDL honors and celebrates diversity and supports global education among parents, faculty, staff, and alumnae so that they can help prepare students to exercise their power for good in local and world communities.

These goals are achieved through facilitating the Books & Breakfast series, planning programmatic meetings with diversity themes, and sponsoring cultural and community events.
