As part of the University’s ongoing commitment to build Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) capacity across the institution, the call for applications for the 2024-2025 EDI Scholars program will open on March 25. The EDI Scholars program is an excellent opportunity to recognize and provide support for individuals who want to be and continue to be involved in EDI work at the scholarly level.
Established in 2021, the EDI Scholars program was awarded to Drs. Glenda Bonifacio, Sandra Dixon and Roy Golsteyn (BASc (BSc) '84) in 2021-22 and Dr. Laura Keffer-Wilkes (MSc ’12, PhD ’16) in 2022-23. The 2023-24 EDI Scholars are Drs. Dawn Burleigh, Sean Fitzpatrick, Kara Granzow (BA ’99), Jason Laurendeau, Rhiannon Mesler and Tracy Oosterbroek (BN ’95, MSc(N) ’09).
Scholars engage in projects that advance the University’s EDI priorities and, when completed, share the information with the broader campus community.
Open to all Faculty and instructors with a continuing (full time) academic appointment, the EDI Scholars program will provide teaching reliefs or cover project costs for those appointed. The deadline to apply is Monday, May 6.
