FIT Diversity Council

One of the key goals of the FIT Strategic Plan is to create a campus that is purposefully
diverse---one which, through its students, faculty and staff---reflects the pluralistic
city, nation and world in which we live. Diversity is a fact of life---a powerful
source of enrichment, a vital tool in a competitive marketplace, and a cause for celebration.
Indeed, it is a critical element in fulfilling FIT's mission to prepare students with
the kind of global perspective they will need for success. But as a community, we
cannot just pay lip service to it. That is why I established the FIT Diversity Council.
With its ambitious goals and initiatives---and mission to foster a climate of inclusion
within the campus community---it plays a primary role in our ongoing efforts to ensure
diversity in all that we do.
