A brief description of the diversity and equity committee, office and/or officer, including purview and activities:
The Diversity and Inclusion Officer (formally known as the Director of HR) oversees a committee to assure that we live up to our diversity commitments: Clarkson University affirms the inherent value of diversity and recognizes individual differences as positively shaping and strengthening our campus community while enriching the Clarkson educational experience for everyone. Diversity, as understood here, encompasses aspects of race, ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, age, physical abilities, and/or religious and political beliefs. These differences find expression in unique perspectives and points of view that enhance decision making, problem-solving and idea generation across the campus—in our classrooms, laboratories, athletic fields and residence halls.
