Community Colleges for Iowa today announced plans to review and recommend changes on diversity, equity, and inclusion for Iowa’s 15 community colleges. The recommendations will consider:
-
Federal and state law, accreditation, and athletic requirements pertaining to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
-
DEI positions, clubs, activities, events, trainings, and councils.
-
Campus climate and culture.
-
Staff and faculty hiring and promotion practices.
These recommendations will be reviewed and finalized by the presidents by the end of May 2024 and serve as a guide going forward.
