The university states that the new director of the The Office of Equity and Equal Opportunity will include women's issues or might even have a focus on that ,depending on who that person is. I can't imagine the same being said for other areas of concern. That seems a fragile position for women's issues to be in, especially in light of the larger political atmosphere for women and minorities. The university has had an increase in reporting of rapes and assaults against women in the past year. Additionally an unusually high number of women faculty left the university last year , many with complaints about the climate.
Great energy is expended by the women on campus to assure equity.
This is simply an FYI for interested colleagues. I'm sure Miami University won't be the only institution to back away from such issues in the days ahead.
