Hoorah! Hoorah!

At yesterday's UC San Diego Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action and Diversity Awards Program, UExplore was commended as a program that:

• Celebrates cultural differences
• Promotes fairness at UC San Diego
• Makes UCSD a better place to work
• Demonstrates exemplary support of the UCSD Principles of Community

Senior Vice Chancellor Paul W. Drake was on hand to describe UExplore as one of the many efforts made by the Academic Affairs Human Resources Unit to celebrate equal opportunity, affirmative action, diversity, and the UCSD Principles of Community during 2008.

Also in attendance was Chancellor Marye Ann Fox, Chief Diversity Officer Sanda Daley, and Director of Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Paula Doss.

At least two of our UExplore peers, Michelle Viernes and Cindy Hsu, were also in the crowd of staff and faculty supporters in the audience.

Let's have a grand round of applause to all of us for this important contribution to the UC San Diego community.
