Presidential Working Group on Diversity and Inclusion
In fall 2017, President Crawford commissioned a Working Group to address key issues around Diversity & Inclusion, allowing Miami to enhance a welcoming and tolerant community for all students, faculty, and staff.
Chaired by Professor Rodney Coates, the Working Group submitted its report in May 2018, which includes a summary and set of recommendations. Tasks designed to advance these goals will be integrated with the work related to the One Miami Campus Climate Survey.
