Welcoming and Mentoring Students of Color

Mission

The committee is in early stages of forming and the mission will be further refined over the course of the next few meetings, but the committee is primarily focused on ensuring opportunities for student engagement (undergraduate and graduate) that are welcoming, inclusive and supportive and expanding access to supportive mentoring for students of color.

Goals

  • Concrete goals have not been set by this committee and will be generated during future meetings.

Members
