The Diversity Academy published its first issue of “Transformations,” a magazine explaining the functions of the academy and the fellowships and faculty learning communities available to IUS faculty. “The Diversity Academy is an academic affairs system for supporting faculty teaching, research and service in broad area of diversity,” Annette Wyandotte, interim associate vice chancellor of Academic Affairs and magazine editor, said. The IUS mission statement defines diversity as characteristics, such as age, ethnicity, gender, marital status, religion and sexual orientation.
