Dr. Fallahi briefly discussed the CCSU gender, race and equity study conducted last year by herself and Dr. Sally Laska. The findings will be formally presented on October 14, 2009 3 p.m. in the Connecticut room. Dr. Merenstein discussed events on the curriculum subcommittee. The diversity designation passed unanimously in the faculty Senate. New diversity workshops will be offered in the fall. There is a need to work with the registrar's office to coordinate. Dr. Merenstein and Dr. Fallahi are working on grants to study the impact of 21 diversity designated courses. There will be two main research questions asked in these studies. First, is there a movement within diversity designated courses? Second, does movement vary across diversity designated courses? Dr. Merenstein announced the need for a subcommittee to oversee the implementation of the courses. Dr. Merenstein announced that year's efforts will attempt to include all of the experts on campus in upcoming diversity training Dr. McLaughlin stated that he would share information about the diversity committee to campus at large whenever the committee is ready. Dr. Fallahi announced that she has not spoken with the president yet about money for the diversity committee. There was a brief discussion of the need to draw upon on-campus resources. There was a discussion on whether or not the committee should frame this year's lectures as a series of questions. Dr. Fallahi motioned that we use our own faculty members and affiliates as diversity speakers. Dr. Koh seconded the motion. Motion carried. Dr, Ratelle suggested that the year's theme should be "social justice". A motion was put forth toward this and seconded. Motion carried. Elections were held for official positions on this year's committee. Dr. Merenstein and Dr. Koplowitz were elected as co-chairs of the committee by popular decision. Dr. Costanza was elected as secretary. Dr. Fallahi was elected to serve as chair of the policy committee. Dr. Merenstein was elected to serve as head of the curriculum committee. Dr. Marchese was elected as head of the outreach committee. Dr. Retelle was elected as chair of programming. The election was finalized. The position of "vice chair" was eliminated due to the fact that there will be two co-chairs this year. There was a discussion of numerous people who claim to serve on the diversity committee before the Promotion and Tenure committee yet do not attend meetings. No motion was forwarded. Dr. Love announced that there will be a vigil for the homeless taking place on October 8 at 5:30 p.m. in Memorial Hall Circle.
