Diversity Liaisons
All units were asked to appoint Diversity Liaison who would work directly with their unit leadership and the Division of Diversity and Community Engagement. Due to proximity, Diversity Liaisons are able to provide support to unit leadership and colleagues in terms of strategy, policy, training, climate, and accountability related to diversity, equity, and inclusion at the University of Mississippi.
Individual roles, priorities, and processes vary by unit but these individuals play crucial roles in their unit. They also provide advisory support to the Division of Diversity of Community Engagement.
