Committee for Inclusive & Intercultural Learning (IIL)

Purpose

The purpose of the IIL is to actively promote and maintain an inclusive and equitable environment for all members of the LVC learning community.

We strive to create a sustained culture that is aware, accepting, and enhanced by the rich cultures, races, genders, sexual orientations, ages, religions, and physical abilities on campus, with particular focus on groups that have been historically marginalized.

Self-Nomination Process

We invite you to consider self-nomination for membership on the Committee for Inclusive and Intercultural Learning for the 2021-22 academic year.

The committee is comprised of members of the College’s faculty, administration, as well as three student representatives (two appointed from Student Government and one from self-nomination). The Committee will look at all-inclusive and intercultural functions of the College with specific emphasis in the following areas:

• Plan and implement the annual Symposium on Inclusive Excellence.
• Make funding recommendations to President MacLaren for campus projects and initiatives that are inclusive and/or intercultural in nature.
• Use a global diversity and inclusion exercise/audit to benchmark other institutions, LVC affiliates, and vendors.
• Implement protocols for responding to campus reports of bias.
• Take a leadership role in educating the community on the culture of LVC and be proponents of institutional change.
• Increase the visibility of the committee through strategies such as student resources, quarterly newsletters, and a symposium series beyond the annual one-day event.
