*This listing represents the Diversity Forum programs for which we currently have accurate records. The program began prior to October 2004, and we are in the process of compiling a more complete history.
Diversity Forum began as an initiative of the Office of Student Life and was managed for several years by the Office of Pluralism & Leadership until IDE assumed responsibility for it in Winter 2005.
