Seeking Nominations for the Isaac L. Jordan Sr. Faculty and Staff Pluralism Awards along with the DDI Student Beacon Award
We are pleased to announce nominations for the Isaac L. Jordan Sr. Faculty and Staff Pluralism Award. It is given in honor of Mr. Jordan, who was a visionary leader on campus working to advance diversity and inclusion. In 1990, he became the first chairperson of RIT’s Commission for Promoting Pluralism and held this position until his passing in 1994. He celebrated differences and always encouraged people to attain their full potential. We are seeking RIT faculty and staff who adhere to those same values in working to create a sense of belonging and a unified campus community. If you would like to nominate someone, please use the links below.
