[The DeLTA Project at UGA @UGA_DeLTA]

DeLTA is excited to congratulate Paula Lemons on her new role as an Associate Dean of Social and Behavioral Sciences in the Franklin College of Arts & Sciences at UGA. We appreciate how Paula centers equity, inclusion, and student success in everything she does.

If a URM student seeks out a position in your lab, earns that position, and then succeeds that doesn't actually mean YOU are "doing DEI" work. In fact, you may just be taking credit for their perseverance. I realize that writing DEI statements is a challenge, but be thoughtful!
