Woodring Diversity Committee (est. 1999)
Woodring College of Education strives to be inclusive of all diverse populations including, but not limited to, those who have experienced systemic social injustices based on their ethnicity, race, gender, age, disAbility, sexual orientation, language, socio-economic status, or religion.
Woodring College of Education is committed to transformational change that supports increased understanding and respect for differences and similarities among people and cultures. One of the ways the College fulfills this commitment is through the work of its Diversity Committee.
Charge
The Woodring College of Education Diversity Committee will recommend strategies and processes to : (1) support the integration of diversity throughout curricula and field experiences for all Woodring students; (2) attract and retain an increasingly diverse faculty, staff and student population; and (3) foster the knowledge, skills, and attitudes of individual members of the College about diversity, equity, and social justice. The Diversity Committee will act in an advisory capacity to the Woodring Administrative Council to support institutional commitment of the goals.
Members of the Diversity committee include representatives from Woodring faculty, staff and students from all departments, the Education Librarian, and the Assistant Vice president of Student Affairs, and interested administrators from the university.
