The university community is invited to attend an update on the proposed university-wide diversity plan scheduled for Wednesday, Feb. 27 from 12 to 1 p.m. in SUB Ballroom B. Rita Martinez-Purson, interim Vice President for Institutional Diversity, will outline the purpose and major components of the three-year diversity plan, highlighting the eight major goals in the document.
The development of the Diversity Plan is essential to set the course for a strategic vision and operating framework by which UNM can meet the challenges and opportunities diversity brings to our university environment.
It will ensure that UNM attracts, retains and develops diversity in its faculty, staff and students and advances an inclusive culture and support systems. Discussion topics will include the mission and vision of the new Division of Inclusion and Equity as well as the UNM Diversity Report Card.
All students, faculty, staff are encouraged to participate. Light hors d'oeuvres and refreshments will be provided.
