This Committee shall concern itself with the University’s culture and initiatives that promote excellence in an environment welcoming to all. It will work toward improving the campus climate and equity for students, staff, and faculty who hold historically marginalized and underserved identities. It will address accessibility issues (both physical and digital). It will concern itself with pay equity issues across gender, race, ethnicity, and other intersecting identities. It will develop recommendations to the Senate on these issues. The Committee will collaborate closely with relevant administrators and staff, inviting them (in coordination with Agenda Committee) to participate ex officio.”
