The Equity and Inclusion Committee (EIC) is in charge of advocating for the student body on all issues of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. Previous and current projects of the EIC: Re-establishing the campus ADA committee, FGLI student outreach, and establishing a new Student Investment Advisory Committee in collaboration with the SBC.  The EIC is composed of 5 members and works closely with the Resource Center, the Office of Equity and Inclusion WesWell and the Title IX office. The Equity and Inclusion committee is also responsible for acting as the WSA liaison to the First Generation Low Income Advisory Board (FGLIAB). The EIC makes certain that resolutions passed within the WSA are inclusive of all students on campus. In addition, the committee works to introduce and plan programming on campus to bridge connections and resources between students in efforts to combat existing inequalities on campus.
