For Search Committees

STRIDE: Strategies and Tactics for Recruiting to Improve Diversity and Excellence

This committee provides information and advice about practices that will maximize the likelihood that well-qualified female and minority candidates for faculty positions will be identified, and, if selected for offers, recruited, retained, and promoted at the University of Michigan. The committee leads workshops for faculty and administrators involved in hiring. It also works with departments by meeting with chairs, faculty search committees, and other department members involved with recruitment and retention.

STRIDE is available to:
- Work with search committees throughout the search process
- Offer recruitment workshops to departments, search committees,
   and other groups
- Advise chairs on search committee composition and search practices
