Commission on Status of People of
Color
As an advocacy group, the commission identifies, recommends, and
supports creative strategies for promoting and supporting campus
diversity; it responds to issues, needs, and concerns identified within
the community; it works to establish effective and collaborative working
relationships between departments, offices, committees, commissions, and
special programs that play a role in fostering diversity on campus and
ensuring that the environment is supportive of the minority populations.
Diversity
Engagement Team
The Diversity Team strives to support UNH efforts to attract, recruit
and retain a multicultural, diverse community of students, faculty and
staff; to enhance the opportunities for support, networking, and
professional development; to have a positive affect on the climate at
UNH through education, programming, and constructive engagement. In the
past, this team has put together a host of creative opportunities which
have moved our efforts forward in this critical arena.
Diversity Initiatives at UNH
Diversity is a community value at the University of New Hampshire. We
are committed to supporting and sustaining an educational community that
is inclusive, diverse, and equitable. The values of diversity,
inclusion, and equity are inextricably linked to our mission of teaching
and research excellence, and we embrace these values as being critical
to an individual’s development, learning, and success. We expect nothing
less than an accessible, multicultural community in which civility and
respect are fostered, and discrimination and harassment are not
tolerated. We will ensure that underrepresented groups and those that
experience systemic inequity will have equal opportunities and feel
welcome on our campus. We accept the responsibility of teaching and
learning in a diverse democracy where social justice serves as a bridge
between a quality liberal education and civic engagement.
Office of Multicultural Student
Affairs
OMSA creates opportunities for people to participate in an inclusive
community and to explore and understand diversity, injustice and equity.
Our work is grounded in understanding diversity that includes people of
all abilities, ages and ethnicities, genders, nationalities, races,
religions/spiritual traditions, socio-economic classes and sexual
orientations.
Providing support and development for African American/Black, Latina/o,
Native American and Asian/Pacific Islanders, as well as lesbian, gay,
bisexual, transgender, queer, and questioning students is at the heart
of our work.
