A University-wide task force on diversity and inclusion released its final report Tuesday, calling on central administrators to coordinate efforts across Harvard\u2019s schools to \u201cfully integrate all members of the University into academic, professional, and social contexts.\u201d The report, which is the final product of the 55-member Presidential Task Force on Inclusion and Belonging, asks Harvard to \u201cbecome its best self\u201d through a framework of \u201cFour Goals\u201d and \u201cFour Tools\u201d and a set of eight concrete recommendations. The task force discussed \u201cmany dimensions of diversity,\u201d according to the report, including race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, religion, and ideology. Its recommendations aim to achieve \u201cmutually reinforcing\u201d goals of inclusion and academic freedom, the report says, calling both of these ideals \u201ccore to Harvard\u2019s mission.\u201d Faust highlighted the parts of the report she will implement before leaving office, including designating $10 million in presidential funds to new faculty hires and requiring deans and administrators to produce plans to advance inclusion and belonging in their schools or units. The final iteration of the report still contains many of the recommendations in its draft version, including its first recommendation, which focuses on evaluating the University\u2019s symbols, revising its values statement and alma mater, and creating inclusive spaces. Like the earlier draft, the final task force report emphasizes staff inclusion\u2014particularly in a recommendation calling for University Human Resources to \u201cenable staff talent and improve organizational culture.\u201d In addition to the \u201cschool-specific\u201d discrepancies in recruitment and promotion of diverse faculty, the report also raised issues surrounding interpersonal relations and the culture of the University. The task force also recommended that Harvard build two University-wide centers designed by faculty, with one center focusing on \u201cidentity, politics, and culture\u201d and the second on \u201chigher education, inclusion and belonging. In order to measure progress moving forward, the report lays out recommendations for improving data collection on diversity and inclusion metrics across schools.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div>\n
