In September, the Office of Institute Diversity welcomed Julie R. Ancis, as its new associate vice president.
“Dr. Ancis’ academic expertise on the intersections of identities and social climate makes her an excellent fit for this role, as much of her time will be devoted to helping our campus learn about our strengths and opportunities and building upon our successes in pursuit of our inclusive excellence agenda,” said Archie Ervin, vice president for Institute Diversity.
Some of her responsibilities will include assessing Tech’s progress in achieving diversity, equity and inclusive excellence; developing and coordinating training and leadership programs focused on diversity and inclusive excellence; and providing diversity consultation services to support climate assessment in academic and administrative units.
Ancis is a Fellow of the American Psychological Association and has been published widely in the area of multicultural competence and diversity. Prior to Tech, Ancis was a professor in the Department of Counseling and Psychological Services at Georgia State University. She has also held a faculty appointment at Old Dominion University.
