President's Advisory Board on Inclusion and Diversity
The President's Advisory Board on Inclusion and Diversity (PABID), a new standing committee for USD, was established this year as recommended by the Committee for Inclusion and Diversity, and replaces that body.
Charge:
- Advise the president on issues, policies and practices that affect the University of San Diego's commitment to inclusion and diversity, including standards and methods of accountability;
- Report regularly to the president and the university community on the status of issues of diversity at USD, such as diversity in employment, campus environment, compensation and campus leadership;
- Offer recommendations in support of the university's mission, such as enhancing the university's recruitment, integration, retention and graduation of underrepresented students, faculty and staff in pursuit of the compositional diversity required to achieve excellence;
- Propose initiatives to educate the university about diversity as it relates to academic excellence and institutional viability, and to fully engage faculty, staff and students in the creation of a campus that is inclusive and culturally competent.
