A committee of faculty, students, and staff looked atthe institution’s current status for women and minorities at all levels. Included in this study werestudents (both undergraduate and graduate), faculty, staff, and advisory boards. In part, thisprocess was to determine our current status with respect to our peer institutions in theparticipation of women and minorities at each level. This process also involved research on bestpractices from other institutions to
