The fifth annual NDSU Green and Golden Globe Diversity Awards Ceremony is scheduled for Wednesday, April 30, with a reception at 3 p.m. and program at 3:30 p.m. in the Memorial Union Great Plains Ballroom. All are welcome to attend.

Created by the NDSU Division of Equity, Diversity and Global Outreach, the event acknowledges efforts of students, faculty and staff from across the university who create a welcoming, safe and inclusive environment where all people can learn and work.

“The Green and Golden Globes Diversity Awards provide an opportunity for all of us to recognize the efforts of those individuals and groups that are working to make NDSU a more inclusive and diverse community,” said Evie Myers, vice president for equity, diversity and global outreach. “For the past five years, we have celebrated the diversity-related work of NDSU faculty, staff and students and members of the Fargo-Moorhead community.”

NDSU is recognized as one of the nation's top 108 public and private universities by the Carnegie Commission on Higher Education.
