Diversity and inclusion

Tuesday, March 24, 2020

Diversity "logo" includes several stick figures of people of various colors swirling together in a circle.

We are, and will remain, one IU.

Lauren Robel, IU Provost and Executive Vice President

IU Biology staff members Jeremy Bennett and Tracey Bradley are serving a two-year term on the College of Arts and Sciences Diversity and Inclusion Action and Advisory Committee.

The committee’s mission is to assist in broadening efforts that impact diversity, equity, and inclusion; to strengthen lines of communication between College diversity and inclusion administration and faculty, staff, and students; to brainstorm innovative programming and initiatives; and to assist in transforming these ideas into action.

Bradley, graduate student recruitment coordinator, participates with the graduate student-centric subcommittee in gathering qualitative and quantitative data from current graduate students with an end goal of having a diversity audit by which attainable and affordable action items can be made.

Bennett, HR business partner, is involved with the faculty-centric subcommittee with a goal of creating literature and/or guides for departments on the value of diversity statements as part of the application process and a rubric by which search committees may evaluate such statements.

The IU College of Arts and Sciences values diversity, equity, and inclusion as core strengths and essential elements in the success of its educational mission. All initiatives by the committee are directed by the College’s Office of Diversity and Inclusion, led by Dr. Russell Valentino, Associate Dean for Diversity and Inclusion and International Affairs and Dr. Carmen Henne-Ochoa, Assistant Dean for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.
