The charter or mission statement of the committee or a brief description of the committee's purview and activities :
Members of the EGP are trained in all aspects of the grievance process to:
• Provide sensitive intake and initial counseling of complaints
• Serve in a mediation role in conflict resolution
• Investigate complaints
• Act as advisers to those involved in complaints, and
• Serve on hearing panels for complaints.
EGP members also recommend proactive policies, and serve in an educative role for the
community. EGP members receive annual training organized by the Director for EEO/AA,
including a review of Colgate policies and procedures so that they are able to provide accurate information to members of the community. All EGP members are required to attend this annual training. All administrative advisers also undergo training with the panel regardless of whether they are formally appointed to the panel.

Mission
Our mission is to support campus diversity initiatives with the goal of increasing understanding, respect and inclusion, and to ensure compliance with policies relating to affirmative action, discrimination and harassment.
Understanding diversity and building a diverse campus community are fundamental to Colgate’s mission. A variety of cultures and perspectives enriches the quality and texture of life, and the opportunity to express differing views and share different experiences is at the core of Colgate’s educational enterprise. Colgate is committed to attracting and retaining a diverse faculty, staff, and student population, and we strive to be an inclusive community, one that embraces and explores difference in an environment of mutual respect, communication and engagement. We acknowledge that in order to fulfill our aspirations, we must free ourselves from personal biases, ingrained social stereotypes, and institutionalized forms of discrimination4. While we recognize that there are challenges in the experience of diversity, we seek to face them in a spirit of growth and learning.
