The following resources were compiled by the department’s DEI committee (who last updated these resources in March 2023). They aim to provide students, faculty, and staff with easier access to offices, events, and protocols on campus related to issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion. We have assembled three main types of resources:
-
Those that affirm and support our department members in expressing their identities
-
Those that can help you expand your knowledge of DEI issues, on campus and within the various fields of music
-
Those that provide outlines of best practices for DEI work, including support for navigating the challenges that you might face relating to climate or any lack of attention to DEI-related issues.
This latter category includes avenues to discuss DEI concerns with the department’s diversity officers, department officers, and the various offices that can be used to report infractions to our campus’s various codes of conduct.
Sincerely,
The Department of Music DEI Committee
