Myron R. Anderson, Ph.D.
As a member of the president's cabinet, Dr. Anderson is the college's chief diversity officer responsible for articulating and resolving current and future issues related to diversity. He is responsible for investigating complaints and mediating fair settlements between aggrieved faculty, staff, and students throughout the institution. In addition, Myron identifies campus climate trends that may assist in developing strategies to proactively promote "inclusive excellence." Since Myron assumed his position in 2007, Metro State has seen its enrollment of students of color increase by more than a third, making up 28 percent of the student body in fall 2010.
Working to improve the institution's cultural competence, Myron has led the Office of Institutional Diversity to focus on six elements: campus climate, recruitment and retention, diversity development, diversity initiatives, equity scorecard, and civic engagement. He facilitated the development and implementation of the college's diversity strategic plan and led a successful college-wide campus climate survey effort. He also develops symposia on diversity, facilitates the ongoing assessment of the campus climate, and, in cooperation with the provost's office, leads efforts to integrate diversity throughout the curriculum.
