Diversity Action Initiative

Enhancing the diversity of OSU is a key and critical initiative of the University’s Strategic Plan. The employees and leadership of the Division of Finance and Administration (F&A) have taken this initiative and applied it to the core of its vision, "laying the foundation for University success."

The F&A Diversity Action Plan Workgroup has worked closely with the F&A community in building the framework for advancing the diversity initiative in the division. The Workgroup challenged division employees and leadership to engage and move beyond traditional thinking about diversity through creating work partnerships, both within departments and inter-departmental. This has involved training, employee surveys, creation of action plans at the department and division levels, and creation of inter-departmental program teams.

The results exemplify the interest and desire of F&A employees at all levels in the organization to make OSU and F&A a welcoming and positive place to work and contribute.

We invite you to read our plans and share in our goals as we move forward in 2006-2007. We will update this website quarterly with new information on our progress.
