From the Chief Diversity Officer
The Equity and Campus Diversity Office is pleased to announce the recipients of the 2013–2014 
Dr. Muriel A. Howard Presidential Awards for the Promotion of Equity and Campus Diversity (PDF).

Please join us in congratulating the following recipients:

• Sarah Beth Hinderliter, Assistant Professor, Fine Arts
• James Preston Proctor, Financial Aid Assistant, Financial Aid

These awards recognize faculty and staff members who go beyond what is usually expected as a part of their regular job expectations or teaching assignments to promote respect for diversity and individual differences through classroom discussions, curricular experiences, out-of-classroom activities, projects, conversations, or special mentorships.

The 2014 Special Recognition Award was presented to

• The Buffalo Urban Music Project (BUMP)
  Recipient: Mark H. Filsinger, Assistant Professor, Music

This award was established by the 2006–2007 President’s Council on Equity and Campus Diversity to recognize programs that have made a special effort to promote equity and campus diversity initiatives through faculty recruitment, classroom discussions, curricular development, or special projects and activities that go above and beyond what is usually expected as part of their regular function.

Award recipients and their nominators were feted at a luncheon April 22. The program is available online (PDF).
