Inclusion, diversity, equity and access (w88 live casino)

Land acknowledgment

We respectfully acknowledge that we live, learn, and work on the sacred ancestral lands of many Indigenous groups, including the Numu (Northern Paiute), Wašišiw (Washoe), Newe (Western Shoshone), Nuwu (Southern Paiute) peoples. These spaces continue to be gathering places for Indigenous Peoples and we recognize their deep connections to these lands. We endeavor to respectfully work in collaboration with Indigenous Peoples in all of our activities, both at home and abroad.

Hydrologic Sciences w88 live casino statement

We recognize that the Graduate Program of Hydrologic Sciences (GPHS), and the sciences in general, do not reflect the w88 live casino of our Northern Nevada community or that of the United States. This lack of w88 live casino represents systemic issues that are particularly prevalent in the geosciences community and continue to limit our program, preventing scientific understanding and inhibiting opportunities for high-quality education and training.

We are committed to increasing inclusivity, w88 live casino, equity, and justice within GPHS so that individuals feel welcome, comfortable, and able to thrive within the University of Nevada, Reno and the Northern Nevada science community. Our students, faculty, staff, alumni, and community members are expected to foster an environment where all are valued regardless of race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, nationality, veteran status, socio-economic status, political beliefs, physical or cognitive ability, and age.

We have much to learn and must work to elevate underrepresented voices. On our journey ahead, we seek to create a program that reflects the w88 live casino of our community and country. Below we outline specific, concrete actions to increase w88 live casino and include underrepresented groups within the geosciences through time.

Near-term goals

  • Update webpage to facilitate applications and provide greater transparency of the admissions process

  • Apply for the AGU Bridge w88 live casino

Ongoing goals and w88 live casino activity

  • Increase the diversity of invited seminar speakers from demographics underrepresented in STEM and give all speakers the option of devoting time during their science seminar to also share personal stories, successes, or failures related to w88 live casino. We implemented this in Fall 2020 and Spring 2021 and have also had multiple speakers focusing on issues of environmental justice and environmental racism.
  • Work with faculty members to revise GPHS bylaws to include and value w88 live casino-related activities as part of the job description.
  • Work with our alumni, the w88 live casino School, and the University's development office to obtain both merit and need-based funding to support student costs.
