DEI for Faculty

There will be two faculty liaisons for the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) area, beginning in the Winter 2023 semester, one for general DEI affairs and the other specifically to assist with faculty-led study abroad efforts.  If you have an interest in serving in either capacity, please send a letter of interest and information about your DEI experiences and level of expertise to the Office of the Provost by October 14, 2022.

Weronika Kusek (Dept. of Earth, Environmental and Geographical Sciences) is NMU’s immediate past faculty liaison, having served during the 2020-21 and 2021-22 academic years.

DEI training for faculty and staff is available through the Student Equity and Engagement Center (SEEC) and Human Resources. Contact Stefani Vargas, SEEC coordinator at skrause@nmu.edu, 906-227-1554 or Rhea Dever, Assistant Vice President-Human Resources at rdever@nmu.edu, 906-227-2330.

To request assistance with curricula development on DEI topics, contact the Office of Diversity and Inclusion at 906-227-2000 or diversity@nmu.edu and your request will be routed to the correct DEI area on campus.
