The Diversity & Equity Committee is dedicated to promoting an accessible, inclusive, and safe environment that fosters cultural competency, educational equity, and social justice for all students, staff, faculty, and our local and global communities.

Committee meetings are held the second Friday of each month in STC 201 and fourth Friday of each month in HSB 101 while classes are in session. The committee does not meet during breaks.
The fourth Friday of each month is an open meeting--everyone from the campus community is invited to attend.

For more information see Diversity & Equity on the public website.
