FRAT (Faculty Recruitment, Advancement, and Tenure)
A brief description of the employee educators program (2nd program):
FRAT is a subcommittee of the Diversity & Inclusion Committee, Chaired by faculty members. FRAT Hiring Workshops take a Power Point Presentation developed by the FRAT sub-committee to all departments involved in a job search. The presentation seeks primarily to do three things: alert departments of the university’s commitment to hiring and retaining a diverse faculty; help departments plan a strategy for creating a diverse pool of applicants with the aim of thereby improving our chances to retain a diverse faculty; and advise departments on how to navigate difficulties with making final decisions in connection with the university’s diversity goals.
