Recommendation
The first outcome of the Initiative was to recommend the creation of Chancellor’s
Advisory Committees on the Status of Women at each UC location.
Subsequently, President Dynes formed a Systemwide Advisory Committee on the
Status of Women, comprised of representatives from each of the campuses, LBNL
and OP. The charge of the committee is to examine issues regarding the status
of women staff, students, and faculty at the University of California; to analyze
existing policies, procedures, and/or programs that affect those issues; to
serve as a coordinating body for campus, UCOP and LBNL Committees on the Status
of Women; to identify model programs or activities and support systemwide implementation;
and to recommend to the President changes that will continue to afford women
equal and fair access to campus programs, activities, and opportunities.
The Systemwide Advisory Committee on the Status of Women will help to support
the work of the UC Diversity Study Group and the UC Staff Diversity Council
and is a demonstration of leadership commitment and support for diversity initiatives.
The work of this committee will be significant to the continued success of
the University of California.
