<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:times new roman,serif">Hi all,<br><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:times new roman,serif">Carolyn Brinkworth needs two postdocs to serve on the newly formed UCAR Diversity Committee, please see her emails below. It's a great way to get involved at the institutional level, make an impact, plus it counts as leadership on your CV. It is a significant time commitment, though, so please read the email below and possibly talk to Carolyn to help you decide. <br><br>ASPs, if you're interested, I would count that activity towards your service requirement. All other postdocs, please check with your hosts on the time commitment and if you're on grant funding, talk with Carolyn about how to charge your time for this activity.<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:times new roman,serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:times new roman,serif">Have a great weekend,<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:times new roman,serif">Rebecca<br><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:times new roman,serif">+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++<br><div>Dear Postdocs, </div><div><br></div><div>UCAR is about to start
work on a new Diversity and Inclusion Strategic Plan across the whole of
UCAR and NCAR, to take steps to increase the representation of all
demographics at our organization, and work on measuring and improving
the workplace culture to ensure that our institution is safe, welcoming,
and supportive for all of us. </div><div><br></div><div>As part of this
commitment, we are convening a new UCAR Diversity and Inclusion
Strategic Planning Committee that includes representation from all
levels of the organization, and across all labs and UCAR departments. </div><div><br></div><div>As
postdocs here, you are all uniquely placed to see things that your
managers do not, and to have recommendations for us in how to make UCAR
and NCAR a better place for you to work. Your thoughts and ideas are
absolutely key in making sure that we get this right. </div><div><br></div><div>I'm
looking for two postdoc volunteers to join the Strategic Planning
Committee, and to act as liaisons between the committee and all the
postdocs in the organization. The time commitment for the committee
itself will be around an hour every 2 weeks in meetings, plus time in
between for gathering input from your colleagues, making suggestions,
and helping us with editing to ensure that we have fully captured your
feedback. </div><div><br></div><div>If you are interested in getting involved, please email me at <a href="mailto:carolyn@ucar.edu" target="_blank">carolyn@ucar.edu</a>.
If you want to work on this, but have concerns about your funding
source, please let me know and I'll see what we can do. If there are
more than a couple of volunteers, I would like to create a full postdoc
Working Group so that all of you have a chance to contribute. </div><div><br></div><div>If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me to talk things over. </div><div><br></div><div>All the best, </div><div class="gmail-yj6qo gmail-ajU"><div id="gmail-:2di" class="gmail-ajR" tabindex="0"><img class="gmail-ajT" src="https://ssl.gstatic.com/ui/v1/icons/mail/images/cleardot.gif"></div></div><span class="gmail-HOEnZb gmail-adL"><font color="#888888"><div>Carolyn</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail-m_-8151418798039694283gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><br></div><font face="courier new, monospace"><br>Carolyn Brinkworth </font><span style="font-family:"courier new",monospace;font-size:12.8px">(she/her/hers)</span></div><div dir="ltr"><div><font face="courier new, monospace">Director for Diversity, Education & Outreach</font></div><div><font face="courier new, monospace">National Center for Atmospheric Research</font></div><div><font face="courier new, monospace"><br></font></div><div><font face="courier new, monospace"><a href="tel:303-497-1137" value="+13034971137" target="_blank">303-497-1137</a><br><br>--<br></font></div><div><font face="courier new, monospace">All that glitters has a high refractive index</font></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></font></span><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:times new roman,serif"><br><br><br><br><br clear="all"></div><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><pre cols="72"><span style="font-family:georgia,serif">Rebecca Haacker<br><span><pre cols="72"><span style="font-family:georgia,serif">Director </span><span></span></pre></span></span><span style="font-family:georgia,serif">SOARS Program<br>UCAR Center for Science Education<br><a href="http://soars.ucar.edu" target="_blank">soars.ucar.edu</a><br><br></span></pre><pre cols="72"><span style="font-family:georgia,serif">Advanced Study Program<br></span><span style="font-family:georgia,serif">National Center for Atmospheric Researc</span>h<br><span style="font-family:georgia,serif"><span></span></span><span style="font-family:georgia,serif"><a href="http://asp.ucar.edu" target="_blank">asp.ucar.edu</a><br><br></span></pre><pre cols="72"><span><pre cols="72"><span><pre cols="72"><span><pre cols="72"><span><pre cols="72"><span style="font-family:georgia,serif">Office: 303-497-8623<br>Email: <a href="mailto:rhaacker@ucar.edu" target="_blank">rhaacker@ucar.edu</a></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><br></pre></span></pre></span></pre></span><span><pre cols="72"><span><pre cols="72"><span><pre cols="72"><span><pre cols="72"><span></span></pre></span></pre></span></pre></span></pre></span></pre></span> </pre>
