Commission on Equal Opportunity and Diversity -- After two years of extensive work conducted by the Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action committee and the Advisory Council on Diversity and Multicultural Affairs, the Virginia Tech Board of Visitors voted to create the Commission on Equal Opportunity and Diversity. The commission is charged to advise university council on policy and procedure as they relate to the university's responsibilities for equal opportunity, affirmative action, accessibility, and compliance. This is to include diversity planning, evaluation, training and education, as well as assessment of institutional climate.
