Diversity Officers are faculty members in each department who advocate for the inclusion of students and guide their department to recruit from diverse backgrounds. They recognize and intervene when students need assistance in their academic, professional, and social lives.

Search here for your department's diversity officer. If you need to update your diversity officer's name and contact information, please contact the Office for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.
