IDEA Committee Forwards Recommendations

A

The Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Access (IDEA) Committee of the Board of Regents recently voted to forward two recommendations to the full Board at its next meeting, scheduled for March 9-10, 2023, in North Las Vegas.  The recommendations are as follow:

  1. A resolution encouraging the Nevada Legislature to adopt Juneteenth as a paid state holiday, and
  2. A public facing NSHE Equity Statement that reflects NSHE’s values and commitment to inclusion, diversity, equity, and access.

Both recommendations came to the IDEA Committee from the Chancellor’s IDEA Council, a representative body comprised of diversity officers and other staff from the NSHE institutions.
