Foster a campus climate that respects and values diversity and inclusion among students, faculty, and staff. Serve as a resource on the Diversity Advisory Council and steering committees and employee resource groups such as PRISM, to lead strategic diversity planning efforts. Coordinate ongoing assessments of diversity that use a range of data-gathering approaches. Serve on committees that focus on the promotion of diversity and inclusion programming, outreach, and education. Elevate visibility and credibility of campus diversity education. Assist faculty and staff in integrating and infusing diversity and inclusion efforts in Student Affairs and Academic Affairs.
