The goals of the Graduate Diversity Recruiter program are to introduce prospective graduate students to the rich diversity that nourishes community at UW and in the Seattle area; and in doing so to increase diversity and foster community in the graduate experience at UW. To meet these goals, GO-MAP has a trained corps of current graduate students to assist visiting prospective students and aid academic departments in their diversity recruitment efforts by providing targeted services for campus visits by prospective students considering graduate study at UW. When scheduling a campus visit, departments may submit a request for any of the following services: o To lead tours of campus emphasizing diversity resources and points of interest relevant to a specific academic program o To meet for coffee or meals to share insights and answer questions o To make contact via phone or email before and/or after the visit o To be available as an additional contact throughout the visit. |
