The university debuted its five-year plan to advance diversity and equity at the university on Friday, and it asserts several lofty goals, including reconciling UM’s racial history, creating programs to support underrepresented students and increasing scholarships for women and women of color.
“Our leadership role in Mississippi underscores the importance of our efforts and our commitment to diversity and inclusion in pursuit of an equitable living, learning and working environment for all,” Chancellor Glenn Boyce said in an opening statement included in the plan. “I call on all members of our university community to continue to make positive and lasting change toward being a welcoming place where all members of a diverse community can succeed.”
