It is noteworthy that one of the key action items of the º«¹úÂãÎè's Action Plan to Address Anti-Black Racism, formulated in 2020, is to recruit and retain more Black faculty members at º«¹úÂãÎè. Recognizing that recruitment alone is not enough, º«¹úÂãÎè acknowledges the imperative of mentorship, support, and networking initiatives to foster an environment in which Black faculty and staff can truly thrive. As such, a cohort of Black Provost Delegates has been selected to play a key role in this regard for Black faculty.Â
Dr. Nicole Lamb Ives, MSW, PhD​ is a distinguished and experienced faculty member and one of the Provostial Delegates appointed to actively support the recruitment and retention of Black faculty at º«¹úÂãÎè. She is available to support and provide guidance to newly recruited Black faculty members.
