<p style="margin-bottom: 0in">Greetings from your LTER Ad-Hoc
Diversity Committee. Our committee grew out of the 2012 ASM
through workshops, conversations, and a synthesis working group.
We're organizing our first Diversity & Inclusion workshop
for the 2015 ASM, and we hope you'll attend! Please mark your
calendar for Tuesday morning (September 1, 2015) at 10am. </p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in">In this workshop, you will hear from
a range of sites that have taken concrete, deliberate actions to
foster diversity and inclusion, and seen real results. Whether
you're looking for some fine-tuning or wondering where to start,
this workshop is a great place to learn from your LTER peers.
Current focus topics are: 1) building mentoring systems, and 2)
developing formal diversity plans. We also want to hear what
other questions and topics YOU want included.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in">We hope that you will make sure your
site is represented in this important workshop. Our goal is to
have participants from all sites so we can explore LTER-wide
challenges and strategies for fostering, sustaining and
benefiting from diversity in all its forms. </p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in">If you're planning to attend, please
sign up at <a moz-do-not-send="true"

Later in the summer we'll send out a brief survey to our
attendees to gather your input and help make sure the workshop
addresses your needs. </p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in">Thank you in advance for your
participation!</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in">On behalf of the LTER Ad-Hoc
Diversity Committee,</p>
Daniel Nidzgorski, Chair
