Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
In response to Senate Bill 17's passing on July 17, 2023, Texas Tech University's Division of Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion was disbanded on or about July 19, 2023. Texas Tech made changes with the guidance of Texas Tech University System leadership, including the Texas Tech University System Office of General Counsel, prior to the end of calendar year 2023. This report covers work done in Fiscal Year 2023, so information regarding the Division of Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion is included because the office was operational for approximately 10 of 12 months in Fiscal Year 2023 ending on August 31, 2023. Websites containing information from the division are no longer available online. The Fiscal Year 2024 and subsequent reports will reflect the changes made after the division was disbanded.
