Our "To Do" List
While preceding diversity initiatives and the many related campus organizations have made great progress over the years, there is still much work to be done. The CEC has begun compiling a "to do" list of issues that have been brought to our attention since we began our work in March 2008.
Please use the form on our Contact page to make us aware of additional concerns that should be addressed or, even better, to volunteer to get involved and partner with the CEC on tackling a particular task.
