College of Literature, Science, and the ArtsStudentsFaculty & StaffDepartments & UnitsResearchPeople DirectoryPage 1 of 1Alumni & FriendsCourse GuideParentsLSA EventsLSA NewsAbout LSAHome Course Guide Requirements, Course Groupings & Theme Semesters Requirements Race & EthnicityRace & EthnicityThe LSA faculty added the Race & Ethnicity requirement in 1991 after long and thoughtful discussion. The facultydoes believe that because racial and ethnic intolerance has fundamentally affected the development ofcontemporary American society and because its effects will continue to be felt well into the future, all studentsshould take at least one course that deals on a fairly sophisticated level with topics such as the historicaldevelopment of racism, and the social, political, and economic effects of racism and other types of discrimination.Courses approved to meet the Race & Ethnicity requirement will address issues arising from racial or ethnicintolerance. In approving the requirement, the faculty of the College made the following statements:Required content. All courses satisfying the requirement must provide discussion, consistent with disciplinaryapproaches, of:1.2.3.the meaning of race, ethnicity, and racism;racial and ethnic intolerance and resulting inequality as it occurs in the United States or elsewhere;comparisons of discrimination based on race, ethnicity, religion, social class, or gender.Required focus.1.2.Every course satisfying the requirement must devote substantial, but not necessarily exclusive, attentionto the required content. Courses may meet this requirement by various means consistent with disciplinesor fields of study, and faculty members from all departments are urged to think creatively about how theirfields might contribute to the requirement.Although it is hoped that many of these courses will focus on the United States, it is not required that theydo so. Courses that deal with these issues in other societies, or that study them comparatively, may alsomeet the requirement.Students who are new to the College of LSA (that is, first time enrolled as an LSA student) in the Fall Term of1991, and thereafter, must (in any term before graduation) receive credit for one of the approved Race andEthnicity (R&E) courses. Each term's listing will vary as courses are added or deleted by the College of LSACurriculum Committee. The College offers several courses taught by a number of different departments eachterm. Although the list of courses that meet this requirement varies from term to term, all such courses aredesigned to give students exposure to questions focusing on the meaning of race and racism, racial and ethnicintolerance and resulting inequality, and comparisons with other types of discrimination.This list is subject to change without notice.College of Literature, Science, and the Arts500 S.

(The Milwaukee JournalSentinel, 04/08/06) Dow Chemical has cut recruiting efforts at MichiganTech due to lack of diversity. (The Lode, 04/20/05) AT&T is developing measures of interculturalcompetence for campus recruiting. (Comments fromVP of Human Resources)Diversity in the Curriculum:The ABET Perspective Themes of diversity appear in 5 of 11 criteria(c) an ability to design a system, component, or process tomeet desired needs within realistic constraints such aseconomic, environmental, social, political, ethical, healthand safety, manufacturability, and sustainability(d) an ability to function on multi-disciplinary teams(f) an understanding of professional and ethical responsibility(h) the broad education necessary to understand the impact ofengineering solutions in a global, economic, environmental,and societal context(j) a knowledge of contemporary issues1

Diversity in the Curriculum:The Students’ Perspective The feeling of isolation, compounded with a fewnegative experiences, can make underrepresentedstudents have a different experience or feelunwelcome (Panel Discussion on Climate andAcademic Issues in the College, 03/22/05).zzzMost students have racially homogenous backgrounds, andmany don’t make the effort to know students of other racesUnderrepresented students feel isolated in many groupactivities when groups are self formedStereotyping happens in group assignments or whenstudents ask for help from peer tutors. educate students to recognize andvalue the importance of diversity Possible activities:z A required course in diversityz A 2-credit elective course on working on diverse teamsz A theater sketch about students and diversity in ENG 100z More visibility of international programsz A North Campus "Expect Respect" campaignz An annual high-profile speaker on diversity andmulticultural issues in engineering Which activities best accomplish this objective?Diversity in the Curriculum:Goals and Objectives Goal: CoE should graduate students who are able tothrive in a diverse global environment.zzObjective 1: CoE should educate students to recognize andvalue the importance of diversity in engineering.Objective 2: CoE should support the practice of inclusivepedagogy that emphasizes teamwork and instills anappreciation for the needs of the people for whomengineers develop products. support the practice ofinclusive pedagogy Possible activities:z A high-profile workshop series for facultyz A “thread” of diversity topics through many classesz Internal and external benchmarkingz More diverse team experiences throughout the curriculumz Training for students who study abroadz A set of best practices developed by a cohort of facultywho incorporate inclusive pedagogyz A prestigious award for commitment to diversity Which activities best accomplish this objective?Curriculum Committee Support How can the curriculum committee support theDiversity and Outreach Council in accomplishingthese objectives?2

TEACHING QUESTIONNAIRE ITEMS FOR R&E COURSE EVALUATIONSRace and Ethnicity (R&E) courses are recertified every five years. To assist the CurriculumCommittee in reviewing proposals for renewal of an R&E course designation, the R&ESubcommittee recommends that faculty teaching R&E courses be strongly encouraged touse in their end-of-term teaching evaluations the following two questions from theTeaching Questionnaire (TQ) inventory of items132. I learned to think critically about difficult issues of diversity.186. The instructor was effective in handling multicultural issues and content.When requesting recertification of the R&E designation, instructors would be asked tosubmit the teaching evaluation responses to these questions in addition to currently-requestedmaterials.R&E instructors also may find other questions, such as those listed below, relevant and useful.The full list of TQ questions may be found at http://www.umich.edu/ eande/tq/tqreq.pdf.131. I became more aware of multiple perspectives on issues of diversity.185. The instructor was sensitive to multicultural issues in the classroom.187. The instructor promoted meaningful discussions of issues of diversity.245. The instructor valued the diversity of life experiences among students.251. The instructor saw cultural and personal differences as assets.257. Writing assignments encouraged the inclusion of diverse perspectives.258. Reading assignments covered material from diverse perspectives.259. The course pack covered material from diverse perspectives.910. How might the class climate be made more inclusive of diverse students?911. How might the course content be more inclusive of diverse groups?912. How might the course materials be more inclusive of diverse groups?913. How might the teaching methods used be more sensitive to diverse needs?914. How might working in groups be made more inclusive for diverse students?Above proposal approved by LSA Curriculum Committee on 2/8/05

GUIDELINES FOR COURSES THAT FULFILLTHE RACE ÐNICITY REQUIREMENTREQUIRED FOCUSR&E courses must devote substantial but not necessarily exclusive attention to all three of the followingissues:1. The meaning of race, ethnicity, and racism.2. Racial and ethnic intolerance and resulting inequality as it occurs in the U.S. or elsewhere.3. Comparisons of discrimination based on race, ethnicity, religion, social class, or gender.Courses may meet this requirement by various means consistent with specific disciplines or fields of study.We urge faculty members from all departments to think creatively about how their field might contribute tothe requirement. While many of these courses will focus on the United States, it is not required that they doso. Courses that deal with these issues in other societies, or that study them comparatively, may also meetthe R&E requirement.CERTIFICATION OF COURSESoThe LSA Curriculum Committee is charged with determining which courses fulfill the R&Erequirement.oCourses typically are approved for a period of 5 years.oA course must be recertified every 5 years to remain on the list of courses approved for R&E.oA course is certified as either “Blanket” or “Topic-Specific”1. Blanket: For R&E courses approved as blanket, all instructors must use a syllabus that meets thethree criteria listed above. We encourage departments to seek blanket approval wheneverappropriate.2. Topic-Specific: For a course approved as topic-specific, a topic or sub-title and a topic IDnumber must be attached to the class. Ideally, the topic will reflect on R&E subjects. To illustrate: History 302, Topics in History,is approved for R&E when the topic, Race & Nation in Latin America is attached to thecourse. When a topic-specific course is certified as R&E, our office will communicate with theRegistrar’s Office asking that a “topic ID number” be associated with it. We will then report the topic ID to the departments. As part of the scheduling process,departments will attach this topic ID to the approved class each term this class and topic isoffered. As a result, the class will automatically be listed and counted as R&E regardless ofthe instructor for the term.

Students who are new to the College of LSA (that is, first time enrolled as an LSA student) in the Fall Term of 1991, and thereafter, must (in any term before graduation) receive credit for one of the approved Race and Ethnicity (R&E) courses. Each term's listing will vary as courses are added or deleted by the College of LSA Curriculum Committee.

Gamma (γ) Diversity : Gamma diversity is the overall diversity at landscape level includes both α and β diversities. The relationship is as follows: γ

local diversity (alpha diversity) and the complement of species composition among sites within the region (beta diversity), and how these diversities contribute to regional diversity (gamma diversity) [35, 37]. The influence of alpha and beta diversities on gamma diversity is an essential aspect of local and landscape level conservation plans [38].
