WHO WE ARE

The ASEE Commission on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion is comprised of Standing Members, Division and Section Delegates, and Friends. Standing Members are appointed from several diversity serving divisions of ASEE and other organizational councils (see current list below). All ASEE Divisions may nominate a Delegate to serve on the Commission. Other ASEE members stay connected and serve as Friends. Please see the Get Involved page, if you would like to participate.
