CoDaC has flourished from a staffing model where faculty and university staff come together to think creatively and comprehensively about how best to serve diverse university communities. Through our Faculty-in-Residence and Staff-in Residence Programs, the Center brings together our campus’s best and brightest thinkers and practitioners to make a difference at our university and beyond.
Participating faculty receive a course buyout to spend a term in residence at CoDaC. During the term, faculty work closely with staff on several projects: 1) increasing their capacity to work effectively with a broad range of students; 2) becoming a resource for their own unit’s multicultural organizational development efforts; and 3) participating in the Center’s program design and implementation work.
