Diversity Equity Inclusion Strategic Plan_March03_2021

UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS

RESOURCES GOAL 1: R ecruit and retain a diverse student body.

STRATEGY A: CREATE DIVERSITY@DIETRICH, A SERIES OF DEI EVENTS AND TRAININGS Our first event in Spring 2020 could cost as little as $500. Assuming at least one outside speaker per year, a good annual budget for these events would be $3000 to $5000. For events that do not involve outside speakers, the only costs will be food and marketing. STRATEGY B: LAUNCH THE DIETRICH ACADEMY, A SUMMER PRE-COLLEGE PROGRAM FOR LOW-INCOME, FIRST-GENERATION AND OTHER STUDENTS WHO CONTRIBUTE TO DIVERSITY

Three instructors at $7500 per instructor = $22,500 Breakfast and lunch for 20 students for five days = $2000

For our initial trial, we would aim to include 20 students. Since all of the students would be local and would live at home during the program, the main cost would be summer salary for the teachers as well as breakfast and lunch for the students. A full budget is available in the LEAP slide deck.

Miscellaneous = $500 Total budget = $25,000

GOAL 2: Provide an equitable and inclusive environment for students. STRATEGY A: CONDUCT A DIETRICH COLLEGE CULTURAL CLIMATE SURVEY FOR STUDENTS To maximize survey participation and completion, we propose several incentives with anticipated costs, if any: • Dietrich Day off. One day when all Dietrich classes cancelled. Anticipated cost = $0

• Voucher for free food item or meal from a campus eatery. Anticipated cost = $5-10 per student; ~$6,500 - $13,000 for college • Dietrich apparel: screen-printed t-shirts. Anticipated cost = $5-10 per student; ~$6,500 - $13,000 for college • Dietrich celebration: off-campus food, entertainment (e.g., concert, special guest speaker). Anticipated cost = ~$20,000
