Diversity and Inclusion

CELS goal is to work towards inclusive excellence. We acknowledge that this is a continuing effort that requires us to evaluate and improve our curricula, pedagogy, policies, practices and procedures. This goal also means that we must reflect on our own knowledge and skills as we continue to challenge past practices that have not lived up to our promise of equity, inclusion, and justice.

Aura Fajardo Grandidge, the assistant dean for diversity and student success initiatives, helps foster a sense of community throughout the college, and provides support for all students, faculty and staff.
