My charge to the Presidential Task Force on Campus Climate is to identify issues of race, inclusion and civility on our campuses and to make recommendations for action. I would like the task force to review existing initiatives and to identify any gaps that need to be addressed. The task force should also make recommendations to improve the process by which ongoing efforts are coordinated, monitored, assessed and communicated to our community. Because the issues the task force must address touch every corner of the university, extensive engagement with our community is essential. I therefore expect the task force to reach out to and involve the entire 91制片厂 community in its work. I would ask that a final report be made by Jan.听19, 2018.
