Contributions to Diversity and Inclusion Statement

Debbie Hatke

The Initiative

In December 2015, President Ono announced that UC will be requesting that ALL job applicants include a Contribution to Diversity and Inclusion statement that summarizes an applicant’s past or proposed contributions to diversity, equity and inclusion

• excellence. It is part of the overall applicant

evaluation process and is a required component of the application file.

What This Means

We are emphasizing our commitment to diversity and using this as a tool in concert with other methods to assess an Applicant’s compatibility with our culture.

It Is:

• A required attachment to the

job application or a required pre-screening question that all applicants must provide or answer.

It Is Not:

• A sole means of disqualifying an

applicant.

The Process

All Applicants

The University of Cincinnati, as a multi-national and culturally diverse university, is committed to providing an inclusive, equitable and diverse place of learning and employment. As a requirement to submitting a complete job application, all applicants are required to share how their past and / or potential contributions to diversity, equity and inclusion will advance UC’s commitment to providing an inclusive environment. The University of Cincinnati is an Affirmative Action / Equal Opportunity Employer / M / F / Vet / Disabled.

The Two Versions

Beginning July 1, 2016 all job applicants must provide a Diversity Statement.

All Applicants

• Required to answer a pre-screen question embedded in the application.
• A text box is provided to allow applicant to free-form their response.

As an Equal Opportunity Employer with a diverse staff and student population, please share how your qualifications prepare you to work in a campus environment with faculty, staff and students from cultures and backgrounds different than your own.

Example

I have worked with diverse populations both as a Manager for a fast food restaurant and as an Administrative Assistant for a college that prides itself on having a diverse population of students. An example of promoting an inclusionary environment would be building a staff at the fast food restaurant that worked hard to understand each

• ther as well as the customers, and open the lines of

communication and cooperation among a diverse

• population. I also have a bachelors degree in Sociology,

which has helped me to learn that there are many backgrounds and experiences that contribute to the personalities and perspectives of people. By being open to these unique perspectives I have learned to communicate better with a variety of people.
