Yes
None
A brief description of the governance and public engagement assessment(s):
The committee on directors evaluates race, gender, geography, religion, and profession when seeking out potential board members. The committee is annually looking at the diversity on the board in order to find best fit of members and ensure that the Board of Directors remains diverse.
One of the three themes of our strategic plan is "in partnership with others" and our mission statement specifically references reaching "all peoples." Therefore, the campus community is strongly encouraged to seek diversity in public engagement. An example of this is with the Bonner and Bradford scholars, they do a lot of community based service to diverse areas such as the MLK Foundation, local non-profits, and economically disadvantaged groups.
