In order to build a more inclusive and equitable CFANS, our Office for Diversity & Inclusion (ODI) launched virtual educational programming—CFANS Equity Certificate Hosted Online (ECHO)—for faculty and staff in Fall 2020. Three participants who completed all 10 courses to receive their basic certificate share their experience with the program.
Many college students face barriers to success, from affording tuition to accessing promising career paths when stepping into the job market. The Cargill University THRIVE program was developed with CFANS and two other University of Minnesota colleges to address this challenge, aiming to create more equitable access for women and minority students in agriculture, STEM, and business.
