The Absent Word


At their upcoming meetings, the Regents will be hearing a presentation - actually a series of presentations - on "UC Inspires: Celebrating America’s 250th and UC's Contributions to the Nation." The reports highlight UC's connections with the VA, medical and scientific developments, contributions to agriculture, and economic importance.

Yours truly did a search on the source document attached to the Regents' agenda and noted that the word "diversity" appears nowhere within it.* The closest it comes to that once-popular word is a highlighting of access to first generation college students.

Just an observation...
