Welcome to HD: HPER Diversity
Diversity Coordinators
Department of Kinesiology - Antonio Williams
A commitment to diversity is central to the department of Kinesiology’s
commitment to discovery. As an institution of higher learning we
have an obligation to ensure that a broad perspective of views are
brought forth concerning issues that affect us as students, scholars,
and citizens. In essence, to adequately research, serve, and educate
our community we must be a representation of that community. As the
Department of Kinesiology Coordinator, I am 100% committed to helping
our students obtain their educational goals. Come join the rich and
inclusive community within the Department
of Kinesiology.
Knowing is Living,
Antonio S. Williams, MS, NASM-CPT
Department of Applied Health Science - Dr. Kevin Slates
If HPER dedicates itself to recruitment and retention
efforts around the nation, the possibilities for developing a diverse
student population are well within reach. The demographic changes that
are anticipated over the next decade magnify the importance of organizations
working to address disparities in health status in the workplace
and community. Commitment to diversity
at every level of the institution, on a philosophical as well as a
financial basis, must form the base of all admission and recruitment
efforts
Sincerely,
Department of Recreation, Park, and Tourism Studies - Dr. Marieke Van Puymbroeck
