Staff Diversity Development Initiative
The 2012 Staff Diversity Initiative was launched on September 25th with the goal to assist University staff members in:
- Developing knowledge, awareness and skills for strengthening their work in and with our diverse community of learners and workers;
- Supporting student learning, acclimation and success in the university community
- Achieving their individual professional and personal diversity goals as outlined in their annual performance reviews; and
- Assisting Hamline University to achieve our diversity goals and aspiration in their respective roles, responsibilities and units.
In the Spring 2012 pilot program participants tracked their attendance at all applicable events through the spring semester, assigning pre-determined points to each event attended. They were then assigned an achievement level based on the participation form the submitted.
Over 60 staff members, representing one-sixth of the staff population, voluntarily participated in the initiative. This is a tremendous effort on the part of Hamline University staff individually and as a whole. With such enthusiastic response, we are excited to offer the program again this year.
For more information about this year's program, view the Kick-Off Presentation below and the Program Overview.
