Has the institution assessed student diversity and educational equity?:
A brief description of the student diversity and educational equity assessment(s):
The diversity committee supported a survey seeking out the students perceptions of diversity on campus. We are using the preliminary information to propose cultural competency training for faculty around difficult dialogues in the classrooms. We are also working with the Dean of the College to assess faculty hiring processes with a goal of increasing diverse faculty on campus. The diversity committee and Institutional Research Office are compiling data on underrepresented students and their success in the classrooms (major/minor chosen, GPA, research participation) as a precursor to discussions on levels of preparedness in support of additional support during their first year or two on campus.

A brief description of the employee diversity and employment equity assessment(s):
Has the institution assessed diversity and equity in terms of governance and public engagement?:
A brief description of the governance and public engagement assessment(s):
We do not have a diversity statement, outside of the federal EEO. Again the institution is beginning to look into ways that this can and should be addressed better through the strategic planning process.
