In August of 2021, University President Samuel L. Stanley unveiled a strategic plan for increasing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion throughout the MSU community. The plan, which was developed by the DEI Steering Committee, highlights a framework of recommendations for improving university culture around DEI and integrating DEI into the University’s broader strategic planning efforts.

The plan can be viewed here, and a webcast where President Stanley, Vice President and Chief Diversity Officer Jabbar Bennett, and Co-Chairs Wanda Libscomb and Luis Alonzo Garcia discuss the strategic plan and answer questions from the MSU community can be found here.
