Inclusion Council Working Groups: Grad Student Reps Needed!

Gather info, Develop recommendations, Propose plan of action

The Office of Equity and Inclusion and the Inclusion Council is committed to partnering with the UMBC community. We acknowledge that there are many faculty, staff, and student groups that are already doing important inclusion work in our community and beyond. We believe in the power of collaboration and seek to help elevate and provide space for the important work that is already underway. 


The Inclusion Council is now launching working groups to gather information, develop recommendations, and propose a plan of action with respect to a number of issues that have been identified by our community as priorities. We encourage UMBC community members from a variety of backgrounds to participate in these working groups. We specifically would like more graduate student representation in the working groups. As a community, we plan to draw on the leadership and wisdom of our students, alumni, faculty, and staff, many of whom confront these issues every day through their teaching, research, and activism.  


If you are interested in joining any of the working groups, please submit your top two choices via the Inclusion Council Working Group Selection Form.  You will find a brief description of the proposed subject matter for each group there.
