Progress Since First Annual Status of
Women Report
The Chancellor's Committee on Women is
pleased to report that three major initiatives in which the CCW was
involved achieved significant success during the 1998-1999 academic
year. The initiatives were the sexual harassment policy, the campus
diversity plan, and feminine hygiene issues.
- Sexual Harassment policy. The sexual
harassment policy for the Boulder campus was significantly revised
during the academic year. The CCW was actively involved in commenting
on the revised policy and seeking additional modifications. Although
not all of our concerns were incorporated in the final document, the
CCW was able to advocate on behalf of women on campus and make changes
to the policy that will have long-lasting effects.
- Campus diversity policy. The CCW worked
to ensure that women's issues were addressed during the revising of
the diversity policy. We had significant input into the discussion
of initiatives and measurements incorporated in the policy. As shown
later in this report, many of the recommendations proposed by the
CCW for this Status of Women Report are similar to key strategies
proposed for the Boulder Campuss Diversity Plan.
- Feminine hygiene issues. The CCW,
in keeping with its belief that the campus should be accommodating
to all individuals, spearheaded efforts to ensure working vending
machines (or alternatively, supply of products) and installation of
disposal receptacles in womens restrooms around the entire campus.
Many of these concerns are being addressed during the summer of 1999
with installation of receptacles and the initiation of a new product
policy. CCW believes that additional steps may be necessary in terms
of the number of women's restrooms where products are stocked but
commends the University on finally making progress in this area.
Actions that others on campus have undertaken
during this period include:
- Faculty mentoring programs targeting
junior women faculty.
- Selected funding for on campus and
off-campus leadership programs for women faculty and staff.
- Commitment to addressing salary equity
for women faculty through the Salary Equity Appeals Committee and
funding by deans.
- Improved security measures to provide
increased protection for women.
