As you know, an incident occurred on our campus on Saturday, March 16 where an active shooter response was engaged campus-wide as a result of information received by the Division of Public Safety and Security (DPSS).

The University of Michigan is organizing three Student Community Conversation events on March 25, 27 and April 2. Each event provides students with an interactive opportunity to share their ideas and experiences in relation to diversity, equity and inclusion efforts at U-M.

The Souls of Black Folk: Role of Race in the Psychological Lives of African Americans, Given by Robert M. Sellers, April 1, 2019.

To encourage campus-wide efforts that promote, enhance and celebrate diversity, equity and inclusion, the Office Diversity, Equity & Inclusion has established a dedicated DEI Innovation Fund to support projects that advance an innovative approach to DEI at U-M.

Innovation is driven by new ideas, creativity and the belief that there’s always potential to improve upon something that’s already been established. Dr. Robert Sellers, Vice Provost for Equity and Inclusion and Chief Diversity Officer, has encouraged the University community to think big about innovation.
