Campus Groups Fostering Diversity

CORE Committee for the support of Women in operation since early 1998, was given its charge by the president of the university. The committee will be conducting various surveys to examine salary equity based on gender and measure a number of items regarding faculty satisfaction with UTMB to determine if females view the institution differently than males, among other things.

CORE Committee for the support of Minorities appointed in January 1998, also given its charge by the president of the university. The committee is examining available statistics regarding the diversity of the institution and has reviewed sections of the institution affirmative action plan. The committee is working with the CORE for Women to initiate an equity study for faculty and attempting to conduct an independent study for faculty regarding equity as it relates to salaries among administrators. This committee is also very interested in the overall issue of diversity on campus, students and employees.
