262.81 LEGISLATIVE INTENT.
The general assembly recognizes that educational programs designed
to enhance the interrelation and cooperation among cultural, racial,
and ethnic groups in society require the contribution and active
participation of all ethnic and racial groups. The general assembly
also recognizes that failure to include minority representation at
the faculty level at the state universities contributes to cultural,
racial, and ethnic isolation of minority students and does not
reflect the realities of a multicultural and diverse society.
Therefore, the "Regents' Minority and Women Educators Enhancement"
program is established to assist in the recruitment and retention of
faculty that more adequately represents the diverse cultural, racial,
and ethnic makeup of society and to improve the education of all
students. Section History: Recent Form
