UA R15 - Amending the University Assembly Bylaws’ Title of the Standing ‘Campus Infrastructure Committee’ (CIC)

HEI HEI DEPEW: Thank you all for logging in today for the Employee Assembly-- Community Building, Engaging in Difficult Conversations panel discussion. Based on the feedback from the 2020 Fall Employee Assembly Priorities Poll, staff have provided strong support for prioritizing diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts.   Staff have noted that globally, nationally, and locally, conversations are occurring surrounding these issues. There appears to be a need to have difficult conversations.

HEI HEI DEPEW: Welcome to the Employee Assembly COVID One Year Later Staff Forum. I am Hei Hei Depew, financial analyst for the College of Human Ecology and the chair of the Employee Assembly. We asked staff to submit feedback and questions via Qualtrics for today's staff forum. This content will help drive today's staff forum. But there's also an opportunity for you all to submit questions via the Q&A feature of this webinar. Please be advised, we will try to get to all of your questions, but time is limited.

Hi President Pollack,    It is my pleasure to convey to you UA R14: Calling on the Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America (TIAA) to divest funds from all fossil fuel holdings and agribusiness practices associated with deforestation and human rights abuses. Recognizing the work the university has done in making the campus a more sustainable place, this resolution outlines the appropriate issues associated with TIAA and then serves as an avenue to support and advocate for the divestment of TIAA funds from all fossil fuel investment/holdings.
