The Diversity Council is a standing committee of the college composed of faculty, administrators, and students, and representing every academic division of the college, the office of human resources, and the Center for Intercultural Engagement and Student Success (CEIS). The Council acts as the main campus voice on issues of diversity, including the status of women and other historically underrepresented groups; advises and supports campus diversity programming, training, and faculty and staff development; supports and assists the staff of the CEIS; and serves as an outreach resource to the Decorah community.
The Center for Intercultural Engagement & Student Success (CIES) is a student-centered office that focuses on student engagement and success, building intercultural relationships and guiding students towards self-agency for their futures.
Through intentional, intercultural and intersectional expertise, the Center helps to inform the campus about pertinent issues and promotes skill acquisition around constructive dialogue and conflict resolution.
The Center supports the in-classroom experience by creating intentional opportunities for applied learning and activities that enrich campus climate and learning environment.
