Inclusive Excellence in Action

JEDI Strategic Plan: Partnerships

JEDI Strategic Plan Partnerships

Constituted by colleagues from departments and divisions across the entire University, the Inclusive Excellence (IE) Liaisons comprise a governance and oversight body that is crucial to realizing the priorities and initiatives of SCU’s JEDI Strategic Plan. 

Convened monthly by the Vice President for Inclusive Excellence, the IE Liaisons meet monthly throughout the academic year to collaborate, communicate, and connect ideas, initiatives, and inspiration related to unit level and institution-wide JEDI efforts.
