The HEED Award is the only national recognition honoring colleges and universities that exhibit outstanding efforts and success in the area of diversity and inclusion, according to INSIGHT Into Diversity magazine, the oldest and largest diversity in higher education publication. CSUEB is continually expanding its diversity programs, particularly those focused on the needs of first-generation and lower socioeconomic-status students.

Some of the university’s recent additions include Sankofa, an Afrocentric program to support transfer students; Kaleidoscope, a mentoring program for first-year and transfer students; and Gaining Access ’N Academic Success (GANAS), which assists Latino/a transfer students. The university has also focused on gender needs by increasing the number of gender-neutral restrooms on campus; establishing gender-neutral locker rooms in its Recreation and Wellness center; and student housing has offered gender-inclusive housing since 2011.

“It’s wonderful to have CSUEB’s successes and achievement in diversity, inclusive excellence and social justice recognized,” said Dr. Dianne Rush Woods, the university’s diversity officer. “I’d like to thank the many departments, students, staff and faculty who embrace our strategic commitment to diversity and who have made [these acknowledgements] possible. We endeavor to screen our campus climate on a regular basis to ensure that we provide best practices and an exceptional learning and transformative experience for our students.”
