Professor Harwood's research, rooted in social justice, focuses on the emerging field of planning for difference and diversity. She has co-authored numerous articles about Racial Microaggressions at the University of Illinois Urbana campus, including two reports with testimonials from students of color about their experiences in the resident halls and classrooms.

Inclusive Illinois has partnered with the Chancellor, Provost, Deans, and campus leadership to conduct a series of campus conversations around the question "How do we build an inclusive Illinois?"

All faculty, staff, and students are encouraged to participate in "#manyvoices: A Campus Conversation on Diversity" this spring, through speaker series, college events, and campus-wide conversations. The goal of the conversations is to ask ourselves how we can develop and sustain an inclusive Illinois; build bridges across differences on our campus; and think creatively about school spirit. The speaker series includes national experts and scholars sharing their advice and expertise around the challenges and opportunities involving building inclusive communities.
