I worked with Brian C. Steinberg for a semester to co-instruct a general introductory course to Stony Brook University, and an introductory course that was oriented towards the concerns of those involved in engineering and science degree programs. From this experience, I came to be aware of Mr. Steinberg's great ability to effectively communicate information, to orient subject matter to meet the needs of a given population and to time manage his schedule to complete all projects to the best of his ability. Here, I also became aware of Brian's passion regarding diversity issues and his experiences with various diversity programs. He served as a reference and guide for "The Eleanor Roosevelt Quad Diversity Committee," of which I was the chair for a year, and functioned as a mentor and friend to all committee members.

I had the pleasure of working with Brian C. Steinberg as his Assistant Residence Hall Director during his last year as a Residence Hall Director at Stony Brook University. Brian is both open minded and well verse in Diversity issues. He is always willing to go the extra mile when it came to educating student, staff, and faculty about diversity. In the residence hall Brian programmed to increase student awareness about diversity and created a "Safe Zone" for all to participate. Brian taught a Diversity Peer Education Class at Stony Brook University that was design to educate students about diversity issues and allow these students to teach their peers about the information they had learned through programming. Also, Brian has present on many diversity-related issues at conferences throughout the country including the Resident Assistant Conference held at Stony Brook University. Brian has a vast knowledge of diversity issues and friendly open-minded personality. He is always willing to help and make person feel comfortable." Jonathan Ragone

I am a white Unitarian Universalist ministry student and came across your site while searching for resources on diversity, anti-discrimination/-oppression...particularly in relation to racism. Aside from your site, I found little that created pathways for white allyship. Thank you so much for your work! This is definitely something that will allow people to engage, who might otherwise be mired in guilt or shame because of being members of an oppressive group. I look forward to putting the word out!
