LDSI: Committee for Developing Leadership in Diversity, Social Justice, and Inclusion
For the past four years, a group of faculty, staff, and administrators from various WMU units including Africana Studies, Division of Multicultural Affairs, Education, Intercollegiate Athletics, Literacy Studies, Mathematics, Nursing, Public Safety, Social Work, and Speech-Language Pathology has been working together to address diversity, social justice, and inclusion at WMU. The goal of LDSI is to make recruitment and retention of faculty, staff, students, and administrators viable by working to transform decision-making at WMU into a more equitable process.

WMU has long developed community connections with ERAC/CE and there is an increasing number of people from all units who have participated in the 2.5-day workshop. - Crossroads Anti-Racism and Training
The work of Crossroads is to dismantle systemic racism and build anti-racist multicultural diversity within institutions and communities. Through their training and organizing programs, community-based, educational, religious, and human service organizations form anti-racism teams and work to lead their institutions in a process of effective long term anti-racist transformation.
