Psychology Student Diversity Affairs Committee

Following info from the PSDAC website.

The Diversity Affairs Committee aims to accomplish the following three goals:
1) To assist and encourage the Psychology Department in the recruitment and retention of diverse faculty, and undergraduate and graduate students
2) To support the coverage of diversity in the Psychology curriculum
3) To provide information to the Department concerning diversity resources and events at the University and in the local community.

The Diversity Affairs Committee is an official standing committee that reports to the Psychology Department. It hopes to function as a clearinghouse for information on diversity resources, facilitating the ability of current students and/or prospective students to gather information on resources available through the university or in the community. In addition, the committee will report on efforts by the department to increase diversity, highlight courses offered throughout the university which deal with diversity issues, and report on research being conducted by faculty and students relating to diversity.
Diversity is defined broadly within the department to include diversity with respect to race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender, age, disabilities/special needs, and religion.
