About Diversity and Inclusion Projects
The purpose of this additional support is to provide COFAC faculty, staff, and departments with the opportunity to create and lead significant diversity projects, events, exhibits, field trips, courses, screenings, lectures, debates, and other related initiatives.
Any project’s outcome must promote an understanding of at least one of the following: multicultural, multiracial, and/or multiethnic identities, gender, sexual orientation, ableness, or other social issues related to diversity and inclusion. Projects should also support open dialogue and foster connections with the college, university, and regional community as well as demonstrate activity beyond individual teaching, scholarship, and service.
For this round of applications, priority will be given to joint and/or interdisciplinary proposals. APPLY
