SUPPORT DIVERSITY, EQUITY, AND INCLUSION AT COM ON BU GIVING DAY
As professional communicators COM has the responsibility to tell everyone's story. This fund allocates gifts to help create an inclusive and equitable environment that recruits, supports, and retains a diverse community of students, faculty, and staff.
Mandile Mpofu, (COMᴳ'24) is a graduate student in the journalism department. As an international student and a Black woman DEI is incredibly important to her. Stories can't be told from just one angle, "in the context of Boston University’s journalism department... DEI [is in] the stories we write, the sources we speak with, the materials we engage with, the professors we learn from and the classmates we collaborate with."
