Other Diversity-related Projects at ISR
- Diversity Kiosk Initiative (internal link)
- Mentoring Program (internal link)
- ISR Reads
- ISR Common Interest Groups (internal link)
In response to data from the Work Climate Survey, DACD's Perspectives Subcommittee developed the idea for these groups and held ISR's first Common Interests Fair in 2008. The intent was to give staff an opportunity to meet others through shared hobbies and thereby strengthen the feeling of community in our workplace. The response has been very positive, and several groups are currently active.
- Survey Research Center PAC (internal link)
As an elected committee chosen to represent the Professional, Administrative and Clerical (PAC) employees at the Survey Research Center, SRC PAC is committed to facilitating information exchange and communication throughout the SRC and, when appropriate, to the Institute for Social Research. SRC PAC connects with others in the organization by sponsoring educational and/or informational presentations, staff development workshops, and opportunities for the staff to learn, socialize, and participate in community service. As an advisory group, SRC PAC seeks to communicate to SRC Administration the concerns and suggestions of PAC employees regarding work place issues. SRC PAC hopes to play a significant role in reducing misunderstandings between staff and Administration by serving as a vehicle of communication and offering advice to the Administration on staff-related issues.
