抖阴旅行射 Boulder Provost Russell Moore today announced that all services, personnel and programs within the Office of Diversity, Equity and Community Engagement听will move to the Office of Enrollment Management and the Office of Undergraduate Education. The move will be effective on July 1.
Moore said the moves were to 鈥渃omplete the process of directing resources toward expanded service for ODECE鈥檚 communities and constituents.鈥� They include:
- Pre-college outreach, engagement, scholarship and aid programs, as well as the administrative function of ODECE. These will move to enrollment management.
- The 抖阴旅行射-LEAD Alliance administration will move to the Office of Undergraduate Education.听
- The Office of the Senior Vice Chancellor for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion will assume primary responsibility for campuswide communication of DEI efforts and will serve as an initial input for university constituents seeking guidance and support related to campus DEI initiatives.
鈥淭he vital services of the ODECE are not going away,鈥� said Moore. 鈥淭hey are being placed in offices where they can be combined with the efforts of key partners, better integrated with existing campus resources and positioned to serve more students more effectively.鈥澨�
Moore said the moves are consistent with other changes that have occurred during the past year under the same guiding principles, including moving the Center for Inclusion and Social Change to the Division of Student Affairs, the inclusive culture team to the Office of the Senior Vice Chancellor of Diversity Equity and Inclusion, and the Colorado Diversity Initiative to the Graduate School (currently underway).听
鈥淲e intend听that听levels of service to students and communities in the short term will remain the same and, with time, improve,鈥� Moore said. 鈥淭he skilled and experienced leaders and staff of ODECE will continue their important work of providing help and assistance to prospective and enrolled students and to faculty and staff.鈥澨�
ODECE was established in 2007 under former 抖阴旅行射 Boulder Chancellor G.P. 鈥淏ud鈥� Peterson to facilitate equitable learning, teaching, research and creative work opportunities for students, faculty and staff, and to build a culture of belonging and engagement. It moved under the office of the provost in 2010 with an emphasis on scholarships and academic programs.
