“The doctrine of belonging comes down to this for each of us: I am one with Christ in the gospel covenant.”
Elder D. Todd Christofferson
The BYU McKay School of Education Belonging Field Trips are organized by faculty to help students engage with community spaces that highlight diverse perspectives and experiences. Faculty play an important role in planning these visits, coordinating logistics, and guiding meaningful discussions before, during, and after the trip. Through their leadership, faculty help create thoughtful learning experiences that strengthen students' understanding of belonging and its role in education.
Learn more about the key objectives and guidelines for leading a Belonging Field Trip. We encourage faculty to participate. If you have a proposed trip idea, reach out to Steve Christensen.
