Message from the Assistant Dean for Diversity and Inclusion
Dear SPH Students,
I want to take this opportunity to welcome you to the 2015-2016 academic year and to introduce you to my new role as BUSPH’s Assistant Dean of Diversity and Inclusion (ADDI). I am thrilled to lead the push towards a more inclusive environment as we aim to build a school that reflects the rich community we serve.
In the immediate future, I would like to invite you to attend a “Listen and Learn” forum (bu.edu/sph/listenandlearn). The goal of these forums is to hear from members of the SPH community regarding our future efforts towards diversity and inclusion. Two student forums are scheduled for:
- Tuesday September 22nd from 5:00-6:00pm in T307-C
- Thursday October 1st from 1:00-2:00pm in T307-C
I am especially eager to hear your thoughts on how we can become a national public health model in the areas of diversity and inclusion. Your feedback is vital to our success.
Dr. Yvette Cozier
Assistant Dean of Diversity and Inclusion
Assistant Professor of Epidemiology
