The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded Bradley University a 3-year, $993,878 "ADVANCE Adaptation" grant under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program to implement interventions to improve campus climate and develop policies and procedures to recruit and retain STEM faculty from diverse backgrounds. The project, titled "Advancing and Maintaining Equity in STEM (AMES)," will establish an "Advocates & Allies" program to address implicit bias and discrimination, as well as a "Diversity, Equity, and Solidarity (IDEAS)" program to increase awareness of and appreciation for broadening participation in STEM. Additionally, the project aims to engage faculty in revising annual review, tenure, and promotion policies, create a data dashboard to track faculty diversity metrics, and develop chair training in areas impacting hiring, workload, and advancement. The project outcomes, including tools and curricular materials, will be disseminated through publications, presentations, and a publicly accessible website.
