The Committee of Inclusion and Engagement works closely with our GPSG Inclusion and Engagement Officer to craft legislation and support inclusive initiatives and organizations on the IU campus. The Committee of Inclusion and Engagement is made up of non-voting committee representatives and five Diversity Council voting members.

The Diversity Council is chosen through a competitive application process. In addition to their role on the Committee of Inclusion and Engagement, the Diversity Council will also serve as the graduate representatives on the Inclusive Excellence Student Advisory Committee, which will work with the Office of the Provost to help address issues of involving diversity and inclusion here at IU. Additionally, the diversity council seeks to propose legislation and initiatives to improve the inclusivity and multiculturalism of graduate student life by speaking on behalf of traditionally underrepresented students and organizations along with the GPSG Committee of Inclusion and Engagement. To aid this process, the Diversity Council will gather data, make recommendations for change, give input for the university’s Inclusive Excellence Plan, and serve as a bridge of communication between students and the university.
