Initiative Title	Diversity and Inclusion Center/Safe Space creation
Submitted in Previous Year(s)	No
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale	Students in the 19-20 ECCEL Leadership Program, as a part of their final project, researched and recommended the creation of a physical Diversity and Inclusion Center on campus. The space would include publications and resources pertaining to diversity and inclusion as well as being a meeting space for cultural and diversity based clubs, organizations and initiatives. The students also recommended the creation of a physical Safe Space on campus for LGBTQ students. CSI would like to work with Dr. Willie Williams, SUNY Orange CDO, to pursue the creation of the Diversity and Inclusion Center in the lower level of Shepard Student Center and work with the students in the SAGA Club to identify the needs and requirements for a Safe Space and work to locate an appropriate space.
