About the Event
In the spring semester, we set aside time for all of campus to gather to learn about progress on the Mines DI&A Strategic Plan, share updates on department and campus units’ implementation plan goals and engage in learning and skill development opportunities at the Celebration of DI&A at Mines. Looking for information on last year’s event? Revisit the 2023 Celebration webpage.

We invite you to submit a proposal to facilitate a breakout session during the event. Want to lead a discussion on a timely DI&A topic? Want to share DI&A efforts you’ve incorporated in your class to help foster a greater sense of belonging? We want to read your ideas. Proposals will be reviewed by a small committee of faculty, staff and students. Mines DI&A will cover all your expenses associated with facilitating your workshop and lead the marketing efforts to drum up enthusiasm for your session.

celebration schedule
Stay tuned!
Workshop proposal submissions are being received and the Celebration’s schedule will be posted in March. If you have any questions or concerns please contact diversity@mines.edu for assistance.
These posters are intended to highlight department and units’ top diversity implementation plan goals, their alignment with the Mines DI&A strategic plan and the outcome/impact of those efforts. The new poster template outlines instructions and information needed for posters to capture units’ most important DI&A activities. In addition, posters will be reviewed by a committee and scored. This evaluation rubric can be used to familiarize your DI&A committee with how posters will be evaluated during the Celebration. The top scoring posters will receive Diversity Progress Report awards. Just in case your DI&A committee needs a boost to get started, check out this poster example. Content was graciously provided by the Department of Geology and Geological Engineering (GGE). Mines DI&A expanded on GGE’s content with hypothetical metrics, goals and outcomes to illustrate how to connect units’ work from their diversity progress report activities into the posters. If you have questions or need support, please contact Heather Houlton, Mines DI&A Research Analyst.
