NADOHE Conference Leadership Institute (3:15 PM– 5:00 PM) Diversity in Higher Education in the Post Obama Election World Some have argued that the historic election of President Barack Obama has catapulted the US into a post racial society, where the issue of racial discrimination is dead or obsolete. Others have argued that although the election represents a step in the right direction, the journey ahead is no less critical and difficult. The panel will examine the implications of the journey ahead for higher education. Specifically, they will discuss the role that chief diversity officers can and must play on their campuses to ameliorate gravitation toward complacency.

NADOHE Special Session (1:15 PM – 2:30 PM) Responding to the Challenge: Immigration and Higher Education Immigration issues continue to challenge higher education and are reigniting the entire debate over access to higher education. The interplay between higher education, secondary education, and state and local government policies will place the CDO in a unique position to influence this debate and to shape the public agenda in this arena. This session will highlight the impact higher education immigration issues are having on prospective students and higher education institutions around the country from the viewpoint of chancellors and presidents. Moderator: Charles Martinez, Vice President, Institutional Equity and Diversity, University of Oregon Rufus Glasper, Chancellor, Maricopa Community Colleges Tomas D.

NADOHE Concurrent Sessions (2:45 PM – 4:00 PM) Concurrent Session #1: Surviving Presidential and Provostial Transition: Practical Strategies and Advice for CDOs The appointment of a new president or provost can create challenges for the CDO. New leadership presents an opportunity for fresh ideas and enhanced focus, but the change can sometimes derail well developed strategies and shift campus priorities. This session will highlight case scenarios and discuss approaches to survive and thrive after leadership change at the top. Sallye McKee, Vice Chancellor for Diversity, Equity and Community Engagement, University of Colorado at Boulder Michele Graham Bradford, Director of Diversity and Compliance, Gadsden State Community College Njeri Nuru-Holm, Vice President for Institutional Diversity, Cleveland State University
Concurrent Session #2: Outstanding Research and Practice: Journal of Diversity in Higher Education Since its debut publication in 2008, articles within NADOHE’s Journal of Diversity in Higher Education (www.apa.org/journals/dhe) have been widely cited in a broad range of scholarly papers. They have provided important analyses of current practices and presented models and approaches to guide and support the work of diversity leaders across the country. Authors representing some of the outstanding research and practice articles from NADOHE’s Journal of Diversity in Higher Education (Volume 1, No. 1 – 4)) have been selected for presentation during this session. Caroline Sotello Viernes Turner, et al, Faculty of Color in Academe: What 20 Years of Literature Tells Us Charles Negy, et al, What College Students Really Think About Ethnic Student Organizations Jeni Hart,et. al, Analyzing Campus Climate Studies: Seeking to Define and Understand
Concurrent Session #3: Strategies for Influencing Curriculum Transformation In order for all students to be prepared for the 21st century, diversity has to be more than a mere demographic issue. It is important that faculty and staff infuse diversity and global issues into coursework and non-curricular activities. We must stimulate students to critically examine the past, current and prospective influences of diverse groups on American society and analyze the ways in which social and institutional structures can contribute to privilege and injustice, as well as interpersonal, organizational and societal growth. This session will discuss strategies that CDOs can utilize to influence college and university leadership who are responsible for curriculum change. Brenda J. Allen, Associate Dean for Planning and Initiatives College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, University of Colorado, Denver Christine A. Stanley, Vice President and Associate Provost for Diversity Professor, Higher Education Administration, Texas A&M University

Calhoun, Global Diversity & Community Affairs Officer Vice President, Eastman Kodak Co
(9:15 AM – 11:00 AM) Fostering Campus Inclusion: Multiple Social Identities Current campus environments bring together students who self-identify along racial and ethnic lines, as well as sexual, gender, cultural, religious, age, ability/disability and numerous fluid combinations of these, and other, social identities. In addition to acknowledgement of personal identities, diversity leaders and other campus leadership must foster inclusion and promote deep learning and understanding of differences among our students, in preparation for the life journey ahead. A panel will discuss the role of the CDO and other campus leaders in responding to the challenges that sometimes exist among and between groups, and approaches to fostering greater inclusion. Moderator: Jeanne Arnold, Vice President for Inclusion and Equity, Grand Valley State University Angelina Listo, Educational Outreach Sr. Program Coordinator, University of Arizona, American Indian Studies (Graduate Programs) Susan (Sue) Rankin, Associate Professor, Education Policy Studies, Senior Research Associate, Center for the Study of Higher Education, The Pennsylvania State University Allen Green, Dean of Studies and Student Life, Sarah Lawrence College
