We’re so excited (and terrified) to start the 2020/2021 year with you! Here’s a quick guide to information, resources, and materials we want to make you aware of.

Anti-Racist Action Plan, Update #1
We’ve created an Anti-Racist Action Plan to guide our objectives and hold ourselves accountable. As part of that, we are providing regular updates on our progress, and here’s the first update:
#1: Ensure that diversity, equity, and inclusion lie at the heart of all that we do.
- All new hires, including faculty, academic professionals, graduate, and undergraduate employees have position requirements that outline a commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion – DONE
- We are working on incorporating this commitment into existing job descriptions – IN PROGRESS
- We will work towards hiring BIPOC employees, particularly when full-time, permanent positions open – NOT YET STARTED. The university is in a hiring slow down. Once our next position is open, we will track progress.
