The Austin W. Marxe School of Public and International Affairs at Baruch College affirms its commitment to developing policies and habits of equity and inclusion in our administrative practices; teaching and learning; and recruitment and retention of faculty, staff, and students. As part of a public university recognized for its leadership in social mobility, focused on transformative civic engagement and public service, and located in the global city of New York, the Marxe School is ideally positioned to fully integrate diversity, equity, and inclusion throughout the institution.
The DEIC was first created in 2015 as an ad hoc faculty committee to write our first Diversity Strategic Plan. Since then, our faculty has expanded DEIC’s focus to include the needs, processes, and policies of staff, administration, and students.
The Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee consists of 9 members, each serving for 2 years, except for student members who serve for one year. Of the 5 faculty members, 1 will be chosen from those elected to serve on the School’s P&B Committee.
- 4 Faculty Members (Full-time Marxe Faculty)
