The Office of the Vice Chancellor for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion and the Black Faculty and Professionals Alliance thank everyone who could attend today’s State of Black Faculty and Staff event.

Also, BFAPA would like to thank Chancellor Jones for his remarks and Vice Chancellor Garrick for providing the demographics presentation and Q&A. For those who could join us, if you have photos you would like to share, add them to the existing shared folder on MS Teams. We will upload the presentation to the MS Teams space once it is provided.

Chancellor Jones and the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Diversity, Equity & Inclusion will join BFAPA on Monday, February 10th, from 11:00 am – 12:00 pm to share the demographics, experience, and future landscape of the Black professional community for the University of Illinois. 

Let us know if you are planning to attend. https://go.illinois.edu/BFAPA_RSVP

Thank you, Vice Chancellor Danita Brown Young, for opening your residence to host Friendsgiving. It was a fantastic event that allowed BFAPA to socialize and relax among colleagues. We are looking forward to seeing more at our next event.
