Brown University Seeks to Create Position to Oversee Diversity
PROVIDENCE, R.I.
Brown University is seeking to create a senior-level position to promote diversity on campus and help the Ivy League school identify and hire more minority faculty.
The planned director of diversity would be charged with developing policies that help ensure diversity in programs at Brown. The administration is still figuring out a specific job description, but the idea is finding a vocal proponent who can enunciate the concept and spread it to students, faculty and other branches of the school.
