Diversity Council Membership

The Diversity Council seeks a balance in its membership that reflects the WSU Vancouver campus community. The Council is thus comprised of students, staff, faculty, and administrators.

Council members serve either as permanent ex-officio members or for terms of one or two years. Ex-officio members include staff and administrators holding positions key to the implementation of diversity-oriented policy and efforts at Washington State University Vancouver. Currently, these include the Vice Chancellor of Academic Affairs, the Vice Chancellor of Student Affairs, the Director of Human Resources, the Assistant Director of Student Diversity, and the Diversity Faculty Fellow.

Other WSU Vancouver faculty and staff may apply to serve a two-year staggered term on the Council.

The Council is typically chaired by a faculty member; the Chair is appointed on an annual basis and serves in that capacity for approximately two years. Beginning in 2009-2010, a vice-chair was also appointed.

Each academic year a representative from the student government and the Diversity Student Intern are also seated on the Council. Other interested students may also be seated on the Council for a term of one year.
