Diversity Summit on Inclusive Excellence!

Friday, May 4, 2012 
8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.

Eleven years ago the Diversity Summit began with a few undergraduate students coming together to talk about diversity. Five years ago, the University of Denver made an institutional commitment to Inclusive Excellence, the philosophical and practical concept that inclusiveness and excellence are one in the same. The Summit grew from twenty-five participants to over six hundred participants in the last eleven years. Originally, the Diversity Summit highlighted the success and goals of DU administration, faculty, staff and students but has grown to incorporate leaders in diversity and Inclusive Excellence outside the DU community. Historically, the Diversity Summit has featured keynotes that are active within academia with last year being the first year to host a keynote within the business sector. This year the Diversity Summit will host Jeff Johnson, a keynote that serves the public good.

Conference registration opened April 11, 2012, and is now closed.
