DEI Committee Update

As part of Mercy’s regular professional development schedule, faculty and staff recently gathered in the Auditorium and virtually from home to listen to a presentation on the progress being made by Mercy’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Committee. In alignment with the Sisters of Mercy’s Critical Concern of combating racism, the Committee focuses its energies on providing ongoing strategic direction and operational guidance to support development of a comprehensive DEI plan at the school. It has representation from our students, faculty, staff, administration, Board of Trustees, the Sisters of Mercy, and the community. Chairperson Sharon Murrell Dilbert ’84 and Program Director Linda Dickey presented to faculty and staff.
