Diversity Awards

Nomination Criteria

In order to recognize those in the corporate community who have done so much to further diversity goals, particularly those of the college, the Fisher College Educational and Professional Diversity Committee acknowledged their efforts through the Fisher College of Business Diversity Awards.

As in previous years, there are two nomination categories: Individual and Corporate. We asked those interested to please take a few moments to nominate an individual and/or a corporate partner in diversity for a Fisher College Diversity Award.

Awards are bestowed based on one or more of the following:

• Corporations and/or individuals who have been effective in outreach to diverse students by contributing to academic success through scholarships, sponsorships, classroom involvement and other activities.
• Corporations and/or individuals who have helped to develop the professional advancement of diverse students through internships, mentorships, recruitment, and other career readiness activities.
• Corporations and/or individuals who have demonstrated a commitment to community diversity outreach and efforts
• Corporations and/or individuals whose hiring and retention practices have helped to create a more diverse workforce
• Corporations and/or individuals who have initiated innovative programs which support the development of a more inclusive corporate culture
• Current Fisher College of Business students, faculty and staff are not eligible for this award
