Participation on the Chancellor's Advisory Committee on Gender Identity and Sexual Orientation Issues (CAC GISOI)
| |
UC San Diego Chancellor's Advisory Committee on Gender Identity and Sexual Orientation Issues is seeking new student, academic and staff members for a two-year term, 2023-2025. The CAC GISOI was formed in 1994 and comprises representatives from academics, staff, and students at UC San Diego and UC San Diego Health. The Committee advises the Chancellor through the Vice Chancellor for Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion on issues regarding policies and practices that will improve the campus climate and overall experience for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, intersex, asexual, agender, aromantic, fluid, and other emerging LGBTQIA+ communities at UC San Diego. The Committee uses an intentional intersectional lens to advise on these issues and takes care to consider LGBTQIA+ communities' needs at the intersections of race and ethnicity, ability, religion, socioeconomic status, and other salient identities.
Selection criteria for potential committee members include: demonstrated support of LGBTQIA+ communities; skills, experiences and background that help the CAC GISOI in meeting one or more of the Committee's charges; the ability to attend quarterly committee meetings; the ability to serve at least 5 hours per quarter to attend to committee work; willingness to serve on the Committee on the Gender Identity and Sexual Orientation Issues for a two-year term (one-year renewable for students); and sensitivity to issues of diverse genders and sexualities. Benefits of committee membership include professional development, community fellowship, and service to the institution.
If you are interested, please review the Committee’s charges and commitments on the GISOI webpage and then complete the application by March 19, 2023. Review will commence in late March and appointments will be made in April 2023. If you have any questions, please contact the committee secretary at gisoi@ucsd.edu.
