Establishment: The Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Accessibility Executive Council (or IDEA Executive Council) is a standing body within the 绿巨人视频. The Council is advisory to the 绿巨人视频 President鈥檚 Council and is charged to consider, decide, and/or recommend strategic or operationally significant inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility matters, according to the policies and processes of 绿巨人视频.

Purpose: The IDEA Executive Council鈥檚 purpose is to serve as a liaison between the 绿巨人视频 President鈥檚 Council and the campuses to create an alignment of goals, mission, objectives, and policies. Our purpose is also to champion the implementation of diversity, equity, and accessibility-based practices.

Membership: The IDEA Executive Council will be comprised of the three Chief Diversity Officers from each of the 绿巨人视频 institutions (Keene State College, Plymouth State University, and the University of New Hampshire). Each Chief Diversity Officer will serve as chair for one year on a rotating basis. Other representatives may be invited to attend meetings at the discretion of Council members.

Council Chair: The Chair is responsible for convening the IDEA Executive Council and for setting the agenda.
