Inclusive Excellence in Fairmount College
The principles of inclusive excellence are infused throughout the teaching, research,
and service conducted in the Fairmount College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. For several
years, Fairmount College has included an advocate on every search committee for hiring
new faculty. These search advocates, faculty members with expertise in hiring best
practices, advise the committees on which they serve on issues ranging from generating
a diverse pool of applicants to conducting fair and inclusive interviews to planning
successful campus visits. Advocates, together with Dean Andrew Hippisley, have designed
standards to guide their work.
