DIVERSITY
Continued from Page 1
of multiculturalism and true social jus-
tice, Ting said.
Ting added that the upcoming
semester will bring University stu-
dents, staff and faculty together to
begin a dialogue on campus and learn
from one another.
McCune said faculty originally met
last semester, drafted a proposal, present-
ed their report to the LSA office and
asked for funding. Upon approval, the
committee was able receive money from
other divisions of the University.
McCune said since diversity is a sen-
sitive issue many may be reluctant to
discuss the topic. She added the initia-
tive will hopefully encourage campus
and community members to speak their
minds and widen their perspectives.
LSA senior Mona Hanna, who
helped organize the last theme semes-
ter on environmental issues, said they
were successful in raising awareness
on campus. Hanna added that many
students became involved in the cause.
McCune invited any student interest-
ed in taking part in the planning for
Dialogues on Diversity to talk to her.
"We work with people all across the
University," McCune said.
The theme semester will incorporate
the entire University, not just LSA.
"We are trying to
encourage
students to think
about diversity."

agement of the overall academic
budget
Goldenberg said there are many
similarities between the cities of
Ann Arbor and Austin.
"Austin itself is a great city -
much like Ann Arbor, only
warmer," Goldenberg said. "I think
the issues at Texas are similar to
those at Michigan, and I hope I
have something to contribute."
At Michigan, Goldenberg was
involved in the education of gradu-

the public sector.
As dean of LSA, she worked at
enhancing programs in the humani-

$1.4 billion campaign for the
University.
LSA senior Lisa Rush said she
has been impressed by what
Goldenberg has done for the
University.
"When I think of LSA, I can't
help but associate the college with
Dean Goldenberg," Rush said.
"I remember reading about her in
Michigan literature before I came
here and couldn't help being
impressed," she added.
Goldenberg said her time at the
University will always hold a spe-

cial meaning for her.
As dean of LSA, Goldenberg s
she has embarked on many differ
academic initiatives.
"It's been wonderful to work wit
the faculty, students, staff and oth
administrators on a whole series
efforts - from recruiting an
retaining outstanding faculty t
building new buildings and ren
vating old ones; from moving th
many aspects of the undergraduat
initiative forward to completing
most successful fundraising cr
paign in the school's history
Goldenberg said.
Goldenberg said she enjoyed h
time at the University and adde
that she is looking forward t
becoming a part of the Universit
