Invitation to Reception October 21

To: UCSC Faculty

From: Professor Elizabeth Stephens and Associate Chancellor Ashish Sahni

All UCSC faculty members are invited to a reception hosted by the UC Systemwide Advisory Committee on the Status of Women (SACSW) on Monday, October 21, beginning at 3 p.m. at University House.

The Systemwide Advisory Committee on the Status of Women was established in 2008 as an outgrowth of the Creating Change Initiative. The charge of the Committee includes the examination of issues regarding the status of women staff, students and faculty; analyzing existing policies, procedures, and programs that affect those issues; serving as a coordinating body for campus, Office of the President and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Committees on the Status of Women; and identifying model programs or activities to support institutional goals. 

Our goal is for interested UCSC faculty members to engage with the committee members and share their thoughts and concerns. Please join us on October 21 for this reception, which takes place immediately following the committee’s daylong meeting on the UCSC campus. RSVP to Rebecca Alvarez at rdalvar@ucsc.edu.
