1 Feedback on A Framework to Foster Diversity at Penn State: and through Diversity Initiatives Fall 2014 Penn State Law and School of International Affairs Penn State Law Penn State Law mentions diversity and inclusion throughout the strategic plan, though not specifically identified under the seven Challenges outlined below. A resolve to foster diversity can be found in the Introduction, the Mission, and as part of the Foundational Principles. Although the plan expressly states that diversity is important, tangible assessment/evaluation, metrics, or data are not presented. Additionally, targeted areas of diversity other than international are not identified, such as race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, and disability. Penn State Law has a tremendous opportunity, through expansion and reorganization, to tackle these issues and better leverage a culture of inclusion and equity. RESPONSE: Based on [Review Team] feedback, we have made some of the recommended changes. Even with the changes, the plan remains a broad strategic document and deliberately does not incorporate everything we might say about our diversity strategy. However, even though the revised plan does not contain execution-level detail, we do have plans to build upon recent diversity successes we have achieved, and, to take new steps in areas where we have been less successful. The attachments contain amplifying detail: Overview of Penn State Law, and, School of International Affairs Diversity Strategies Attachment 1: Law and SIA Student Demographics Attachment 2: Law Student Strategy Attachment 3: EOPC Grant Campus Climate and Intergroup Relations Challenge 1: Developing a Shared and Inclusive Understanding of Diversity While striving to diversify faculty and students, the plan lacks a cohesive strategy toward the development of a shared and inclusive understanding of diversity. Challenge 2: Creating a Welcoming Campus Climate The plan articulates diversity interests throughout, including this Challenge; however, this articulation is without clear-cut initiatives and metrics to gauge success as to how a welcoming climate will be cultivated. Representation (Access and Success) Challenge 3: Recruiting and Retaining a Diverse Student Body The Introduction and Mission demonstrate some commitment to this goal, yet no definite tactics to recruit or retain a diverse student body are proffered. No blueprint is identified to link international students to promoting diversity goals. Challenge 4: Recruiting and Retaining a Diverse Workforce The Introduction speaks to the importance of this Challenge for faculty and staff, but specific strategies to recruit or retain a diverse workforce are largely absent.
2 Education and Scholarship Penn State Law Feedback on the Framework Diversity Strategic Plan and Strategic Plan -2- Challenge 5: Developing a Curriculum That Fosters U.S. and International Cultural Competencies Intentions to expand international cultural awareness and provide international students superb education in U.S. law and legal systems are commendable but, again, no explicit course of action is advanced. Aiming to expand online programs... with emphasis on the needs and interests of lawyers and persons in law-related profession outside the United States... is laudable. Course content discusses cultural awareness, which addresses conceptualizations of diversity to a certain extent. Institutional Viability and Vitality Challenge 6: Diversifying University Leadership and Management Concrete approaches to diversify leadership and management are not articulated. Challenge 7: Coordinating Organizational Change to Support Our Diversity Goals International graduate law degree programs bolster diversity goals. No focused organizational changes in support of diversity and inclusion are delineated. RESPONSE: See attachments.

Penn State Law (University Park) Non-Academic, Non-Student, full-time and part-time Staff and Academic Administrators: TOTAL count 4 out of 44 are diverse 9% 44 Male Female Diverse Males - 2 out of 18 Diverse Females - 2 out of 26 Asian men - 0 Asian female - 1 Hispanic male - 1 Hispanic female - 1 Black male - 1 Black female or more - 0 (WHT/ASN) 2 or more - 0 International - 0 International - 0 The School of International Affairs Non-Academic, Non-Student, full-time and part-time Staff and Academic Administrators: TOTAL count 1 out of 3 are diverse % 3 Male Female 1 2 Diverse Males Diverse females 0 Hispanic female - 1 To ensure we have diverse candidate pools, we have begun to advertise positions more broadly in national journals and publications such as: Higher Ed Jobs.com, The Chronicle of Higher Education website, and NAFSA: Association of International Educators. In addition, we have begun to make more of an effort to advertise in websites geared toward diverse communities, for example, we have advertised in the Diverse Issues in Higher Education website and in larger cities, e.g. Philadelphia Tribune. Prior to interviewing candidates, our interview list is reviewed by our Human Resources Manager to ensure we have a diverse pool of candidates.
5 OVERVIEW OF PENN STATE LAW, AND, SCHOOL OF INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS DIVERSITY STRATEGIES We ve also been using more inclusive language in our recruiting advertisements, such as: Excellent communication skills and the ability to work with students, faculty and employers from various countries and backgrounds in a multicultural setting are essential. And, in a recent advertisement for a high-level position in our department of Graduate and International Programs at the law school we stated, The ideal candidate will have significant international legal professional experience; demonstrated success interacting with a diverse group of individuals from different countries and cultures; experience leading and managing a diverse workforce, with a record of innovation; the ability to travel globally in furtherance of law school programs; exemplary skills in legal writing, oral, and written communication; and outstanding interpersonal skills and also mentioned that. The Assistant or Associate Dean is encouraged to support one or more of the President s Commissions for Equity at Penn State, which includes the Commission on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Equity, the Commission on Racial / Ethnic Diversity and the Commission for Women.
