Diversity Advocacy

Diversity, equity, and inclusion advocacy requires the ongoing examination of all endeavors, activities, practices, structures, and systems of ˮ State University. We seek to identify the barriers and challenges to diversity, equity, and inclusion. We advocate for any and all needed changes that aid in making every person feel welcome, wanted, valued, and partnered with for their success.

President's Student Success Task Force Reports

About the Task Force Reports

In 2015, ˮ students organized “Students of Color Speak Out”. At this event, many students shared personal experiences of racial injustices and challenges with curriculum content, campus spaces, and climate.

As a result, two task forces were created to research the current state of African American, African, Black and Asian American, Asian, Pacific Islander students and to provide a report on the collected data along with recommendations to address the needs of these two specific underrepresented student groups and the impact on employee populations.

Report 1 focuses on African American, African, Black (AAAB) students, while Report 2 focuses on Asian American, Asian, Pacific Islander (AAAPI) students.
