Diversity and Inclusion Committee
It is fair to say that 2020 has been a year like no other and around the world people are standing up for ideals of equality and inclusion. Join the Student Government’s efforts to help create a campus that is diverse and united, expressive and respectful, and inclusive and supportive of the student body.
What we do?

- We partner with other student groups on campus for initiatives, providing resources, help, and support in their initiatives.
- We speak about current issues impacting our campus, the country, and the world at large.
Member responsibilities
- Working towards creating a space in which everyone is respected and feels comfortable coming forward with issues that they see on campus.
- Attending meetings set by the group.
- Working alongside other members to work on initiative and projects.
- Bringing forward issues that are being brought up by other students on campus and advocating for them in the committee meetings.
