The Chancellor’s Diversity Office comprises Associate Chancellor / Chief Diversity Officer Sandra Daley, Assistant Chancellor for Diversity Glynda Davis, and the Campus Community Centers. Irma Velasco coordinates campus diversity efforts with the Chancellor’s targeted activities both on campus and in the San Diego community. The three Campus Community Center Directors — Emelyn dela Pena of the Women’s Center, Edwina Welch of the Cross-Cultural Center, and Shaun Travers of the LGBT Resource Center — also serve as Diversity Officers. Diversity Officers, as defined by the American Council of Education, play a key role as integrators, collaborators, and coordinators of campus partnerships for institutional diversity efforts. The Centers have a long history of serving in these capacities and have the unique ability to bring together historically disenfranchised communities and then link them to the larger university community and to affinity groups in the San Diego region.
