Diversity and Inclusion
The Economics Department has created a Diversity and Inclusion Agenda to start the joint effort of students and faculty to work toward a more welcoming and accessible economics department for BIPOC students, FGLI students and women.
The voices of students will be critical in shaping the path we take forward. Leadership will be provided by student liaisons Elle James '23 and Kartik Agarwal '23, who are collaborating with other constituents of the economics department, including Womxn in Economics and the Economics Club. Professors Anne Preston and Richard Ball are serving as faculty liaisons.
