CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) — The University of Wyoming plans to hire a diversity coordinator soon.
The diversity coordinator will help make sure that students of all backgrounds feel welcome at Wyoming's only public four-year university.
UW President Laurie Nichols tells the Laramie Boomerang (http://bit.ly/2iKQHEJ ) she's committed to following through on plans to make the campus welcoming to diverse people and groups.
She calls it a "critical position" for UW.
A search committee is set to begin reviewing candidates but is still taking applications. Nichols hopes to hire a diversity coordinator between March and May.
