Diversity in IT Community Group

Higher education information technology (IT) units are increasingly diverse and they serve communities where demographics (including but not limited to race, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, ability, and age) continue to change, bringing benefits and exposing areas of concern in the workplace. This community group will provide a platform for open dialogue and create avenues for collaboration to support group members, provide mentorship, and advocate for diversity in higher education. Topics may include benefits of multicultural organizations, employment hiring, inclusion and belonging, justice, accessibility, access to key players, mentoring, training/education (professional development), social cohesion/relationships, and pay equity. Join this conversation with your own experiences, ideas, and questions.
