Committees
The purpose of the Commission on Diversity and Inclusion is to advise the University President and Provost on issues of diversity, inclusion and racial equality at the University of North Florida. These issues include, but are not limited to: (1) recruitment and retention of faculty, staff and students of color; and (2) inequities based on race, gender, disability, sexual orientation, age, national origin and other protected group categories.
The Office of Equal Opportunity and Diversity works closely with the Commission on Diversity and Inclusion to advance EOD’s mission of promoting a working and learning environment free of discrimination and in developing a comprehensive and institution-wide approach to achieving and sustaining a diverse and pluralistic community of students, faculty and staff.
The Title IX Committee for Intercollegiate Athletics serves as an advisory body to the University President on issues related to Title IX and gender equity in the University’s intercollegiate athletics, recreation, and club sports programs. The Committee’s objectives are to review the University’s compliance with Title IX requirements and where appropriate, to provide review, direction, and support in the development of plans to enhance gender equity in athletics and compliance with Title IX.
The Director of Equal Opportunity and Diversity serves as the University’s Title IX Coordinator and works closely with the Chair of the Title IX Committee in advancing its objectives.
