Re: Committee on Diversity 2001 Fall Assembly Report FINAL REPORT
The LAUC Committee on Diversity has met once since, on July 16, 2001,
its submission of the Spring Assembly report. The following
accomplishments resulted from that meeting: Peggy Tahir and Chair and
Lai-Ying Hsiung volunteered to serve as co-chairs. Their term of
appointment will begin September 1, 2001-August 31, 2002.
ACCOMPLISHMENTS:
- 1. Summaries of reports on diversity initiatives by UC Libraries compiled.
[
Attachment 1: LAUC2001DiversityDivisionReports.doc]
- A list of committee reports and relevant documents were sent to Sal Guerena
in April 2001, asking him be the liaison to work with the Andrea Duda to place
them on the LAUC web site. The Committee was expecting these documents to be
loaded to the Committee on Diversity's section of the LAUC Website by August 31,
2001, but the work is still in process.
[Attachment 2: Lilycdcdocuments.doc].
- The committee reviewed and updated the Recommendations for Action 1999-2000

Attachment 3:2001LAUCDiversityRecommendationChart.doc]

Committees' section of the Website: online pathfinders and guides to materials
dealing with diversity.

PENDING ACTIONS
- Draft Proposal 25% FTE Diversity Coordinator. This document needs further
deliberations in 2002. It is not ready for submission to LAUC as a proposal.
[Attachment 5:LAUCDIVPOSITION.doc].
- Continued communication and contact with Sheila O’Rourke, Affirmative
Action liaison at UCOP, in order to insure that the committee obtains reports
of University wide annual statistics on diversity.
- Follow-up with Andrea Duda, the LAUC Web Manager to propose a workable
calendar and format(s) for loading the Committee documents on the LAUC web
site. Whenever possible, the committee should find electronic copies of
the documents.
MOTION TO BE SUBMITTED TO THE 2001 LAUC FALL ASSEMBLY:
Due to the name change of the Committee on Diversity in 1990, and
having observed the usage of the phrase "cultural diversity" in Article VIII
Section j 5 a, b, and c of the LAUC by-laws, the LAUC Committee on
Diversity submits a motion requesting the Committee on Committees, Rules
and Jurisdiction, to review the section of the LAUC Bylaws and replace the
phrase "cultural diversity" with the term, "diversity."
