Faculty and staff members, and students are needed to volunteer to
serve on two committees that focus on diversity and inclusion
issues.
Jeanne Arnold, vice president for Inclusion and Equity, is seeking
volunteers for the University Climate Study and the Martin Luther King
Jr. Executive Planning Committee.
Both large committees will begin meeting in the spring. The
University Climate Study Committee will be chaired by Neal Rogness,
associate professor of statistics, and Arnold. The MLK committee will
be co-chaired by Bobby Springer, associate director of Multicultural
Affairs, and a faculty member to be named.
There will be numerous MLK subcommittees: Community
Involvement/Awards; Day of Service; Programs
(Academic/Co-Curricular/Community Collaboration); Public Relations;
and University Closure on MLK Day. Each subcommittee will also need co-chairs.
Students, faculty and staff members interested in submitting
their names can send an e-mail to Jessie Holland at [email protected].
The deadline for submitting names is March 12.
