The President and the Vice President for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion at the University of Alabama at Birmingham are currently seeking nominations for the 2022 President’s Diversity Champion Award, an annual honor recognizing significant achievements of faculty, staff, students and student organizations toward developing a more culturally diverse and inclusive university community.

Awards will be given in each of five categories (faculty, staff, undergraduate, graduate/professional student, and student organization) for projects or activities that best reflect the implementation of unit and/or campus diversity goals.
