The Academic Advising Center (AAC) at the University of Iowa is dedicated to integrating diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in all aspects of its work. The center acknowledges and addresses power dynamics, bias, and inclusivity in advising relationships and workplace environments. It strives to support students with diverse identities, advance equitable institutional policies, and foster ongoing professional and staff development in DEI initiatives. The AAC also focuses on creating organizational responsibility and accountability by hiring diverse staff, developing DEI action plans, and providing financial support for professional development opportunities.
