On behalf of the Search Committee, we are pleased to announce that three outstanding Chief Diversity Officer candidates will be visiting campus in the coming days, and we write to invite you to attend the upcoming public forums, where each candidate will make a presentation on the following topic:
“Diversity and Inclusion on College Campuses – Initiating Best Practices at UConn”
They will also tell us how they believe their background and skills position them to be our Chief Diversity Officer. Most of the forum will be dedicated to conversation with those in attendance. Public participation is essential to the interview process, and we, on behalf of the President and Provost, request your attendance at these forums and your subsequent feedback.
Candidate CVs, feedback surveys, and links to the recorded public forums are available here. Please note that users will need to log in with a NETID and password to access the candidate materials.
