ASR Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion committee and survey

Earlier this week, ASR’s Diversity, Equity and Inclusion committee send a survey to all ASR staff to assess ASR’s climate of diversity and inclusion. All responses to this survey are anonymous. Aggregated survey results will be shared with ASR staff and used to inform future efforts around diversity, equity and inclusion. Please look for your survey link in a September 27th email and share your thoughts and ideas.

The survey coincides with a week of focused conversations and events about equity and diversity. Greater Than 7 is designed to engage our entire University community in these important topics. Check out the events happening on campus, or find out more about the ASR Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion committee’s work.

Earlier this summer, ASR formed a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion committee consisting of a cross-functional team of representatives from each of ASR's units. The members of this committee include: Chelsea Weber, Josh Geiger, Katie MacDonald, Rachel McKessock, Roxanne Johnson, Sherief Elabbady, and Julie Selander.

The committee has been developing the charter for their work, and has explored some ideas for future priorities. It became clear to the group that it should first assess and better understand ASR's climate of diversity and inclusion, which will help determine where the committee should focus their efforts.

If you have any questions about this survey or the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion committee, please contact your unit representative or speak to your supervisor.
