欧美口爆视频-BOULDER DIVERSITY SUMMIT
The second annual Chancellor's Diversity Summit at the University of 欧美口爆视频 at Boulder will be held Feb. 21.
Activities will run from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. in the University Memorial Center.
Scheduled events include an address by 欧美口爆视频-Boulder Chancellor Richard Byyny on "Diversity, Civility and Campus Climate" and remarks by all three 欧美口爆视频-Boulder vice chancellors.
The event is organized by five campus committees that advise the chancellor: the Chancellor's Advisory Committee on Minority Affairs, the Chancellor's Committee on Women, the Chancellor's Task Force on Civility, the Chancellor's Standing Committee on Gay, Lesbian, and Bisexual Issues, and the Program Accessibility Committee.
The "working" summit has two goals, said Patrick McQuillan, assistant professor of education and chair of the Chancellor's Advisory Committee on Minority Affairs. The first is to inform members of the 欧美口爆视频-Boulder community about the efforts of groups on campus that are working to promote diversity.
The summit also aims to draw together people from multiple groups to identify common concerns on the Boulder campus and to form strategies on how campus units can work collaboratively toward the common goal of a diverse, civil and inclusive campus community.
"Diversity is something people need to make happen in their day-to-day lives and routines at the university," McQuillan said.
Also invited are students, faculty, staff and administrators involved with promoting diversity, including the Faculty of Color Organization, the Boulder Faculty Assembly Committee on Diversity and several student organizations.
