To ensure that everyone has had sufficient time to submit nominations, we are pleased to announce that we are able to extend the October 1 deadline to October 31, 1996.
These nominations are designed to recognize those individuals, departments and organizational units who have made outstanding contributions to the diversification of the career staff work force at UCSD during the affirmative action reporting period from November 1, 1994 through April 30, 1996.
Nominations will be received at the Office of Equal Opportunity/Staff Affirmative Action at Torrey Pines Center South, Room 370. All nominations must be received by Thursday, October 31, 1996. Electronic nominations will be considered provided all nominating materials and personal electronic endorsements from the nominators are received by the deadline. Please send your nominations to Irma Martinez at imartinez@ucsd.edu.
A committee has been appointed to review nominations and will consist of a representative from each Vice Chancellor unit.
Nomination Criteria:
1. Individuals who have made a noteworthy contribution in one or more of
the following areas: equal opportunity, affirmative action, and diversity. For example, staff volunteers who tutored disadvantaged youth in the community, individuals who have actively participated and helped promote staff through the mentorship/sponsorship program, and supervisors who have diversified their department's work force through outreach and hiring.
2. Departments that have actively supported or initiated programs in the
areas of equal opportunity, affirmative action, or diversity. For example, participation in programs such as the Rotation Program or Summer Youth Program, and development of an affirmative action/diversity training program.
3. Departments that have shown progress in increasing the representation
of women or people of color over a period of time. This criteria will also consider the number of placement goals that they have met during this period.
4. Departments that have diversified their work force by increasing the
representation of other protected groups, such as people with disabilities, special disabled veterans, and Vietnam-era veterans.
In order to give all nominations adequate opportunity, length of the narrative statement should not exceed 300 words. Supplemental materials such as newspaper articles can be submitted.
