\"\"<\/a>in this workshop, we will discuss evidence-based practices for writing a diversity statement for the academic job market. increasingly,\u00a0universities and colleges are requesting that faculty job applicants provide a statement addressing how they plan to contribute to\u00a0inclusive excellence in their professional lives. sometimes, a job ad will request that applicants address diversity in the cover letter or\u00a0the teaching statement, but a request for a stand-alone diversity statement is becoming more common. from the perspective of the\u00a0university, the purpose of this document is to verify that an applicant has a commitment to diversity in his or her work within higher\u00a0education, including scholarship, teaching, service, mentoring, and advising. from the applicant\u2019s perspective, a diversity statement\u00a0offers an opportunity to articulate the many ways one may contribute to inclusivity via their research, teaching, and service; and the\u00a0challenges to this work that one may help academic institutions overcome.
\n<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
this session will introduce several approaches to\u00a0developing and writing a diversity statement and give participants an opportunity to begin generating ideas on their own and in small\u00a0groups. <\/span><\/div>\n
