The Diversity Council is pleased to once again announce the availability of funds for the 2009-10 academic year to support learning and activities that enhance our knowledge, awareness, and appreciation of diversity. This is the second year of this very important initiative.
The Direction Six Subcommittee, Responding to Fiscal Challenges, of the Diversity Council has established an application process for these funds similar to the process for awarding internal Strategic Planning and Foundation Awards. The Direction Six Subcommittee will review applications for activities that support diversity and inclusiveness and recommend awards from the available funds.
While all applications will be considered, special emphasis is being placed on awarding funds to support initiatives related to Direction One of the 2007-2011 Strategic Plan, Forging Connections: Serving Community Needs: Promoting Excellence in Teaching and Learning.
Attached please find the application and more information about this program. The initial deadline to submit an application is May 29, 2009. Applications will be accepted throughout the year as long as funds remain available.
The Direction Six Subcommittee members are: Pat Bates, Kimberley Collins, Marianne Dorsey, Susan Murphy, Martha Palermo, Laurel Sanger, Patricia Williams, Kimberley Willis.
