Abstract
With the help of an outside consultant, the President’s Advisory Committee on Diversity conducted an internal assessment to review the existing campus climate in 2004. The goals were to identify challenges confronting the university community and to gain insight into the prevailing climate on campus for faculty, staff, and students from underrepresented groups. Today’s session will present an overview of the “Implementation Plan for Diversity, Equity, and Community 2006–2011,” which set out a series of university goals, including the development of diversity-related policies and initiatives. We will explore what the Implementation Plan achieved and what challenges remain as we aim to develop a more inclusive campus community
