Hi all, This fall, MCN announced its new statement on diversity, equity, accessibility, and inclusion. You can read the statement here: http://mcn.edu/about/diversity-inclusion/
We are recruiting 12 to 20 individuals to serve on a newly-formed DEAI advisory board. Applications are due December 1, 2018. Submit an application here: http://bit.ly/MCNDEAI RESPONSIBILITY: The advisory board is a consultative body made up of members who will share their expertise and help prioritize strategic goals. Members may also be on-call to advise on specific questions or projects. COMMITMENT: The advisory board will meet on a quarterly basis. We encourage one face-to-face meeting per year at MCN's annual conference, although the ability to attend the conference is not a prerequisite for joining the advisory board. SELECTION CRITERIA: We hope to select 12 to 20 members who represent wide-ranging dimensions of diversity, with an eye towards giving voice to under-represented groups. For our organization, diversity means a lot of things. Advisors will represent groups that are historically marginalized due to race, gender and gender expression, sexual orientation, ability, economic background, and age. We’re also looking for members from a wide range of cultural institutions and professional roles, considering dimensions such as subject matter expertise, organization size, and stage in career. Please direct any questions to divers...@mcn.edu. -- Desi González *http://gonzalez.desi <http://gonzalez.desi>* @desigonz <https://twitter.com/#!/desigonz> _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to mcn-l, the listserv of the Museum Computer Network (http://www.mcn.edu) To post to this list, send messages to: mcn-l@mcn.edu To unsubscribe or change mcn-l delivery options visit: http://mcn.edu/mailman/listinfo/mcn-l The MCN-L archives can be found at: http://www.mail-archive.com/mcn-l@mcn.edu/
