Toward Faculty Eminence: Inclusivity, Equity, and Professional Development


The Office of the Provost and the Office of Business and Administration are facilitating next steps with Toward Faculty Eminence (formerly referred to as: Phase 2 Faculty Concerns Report), part of an ongoing examination of issues related to class and labor on the Emory University campus.

  • In the spring of 2010, the Provost and the Executive Vice President for Business and Administration signaled Emory University's commitment to engage in a process that looked at distinct labor segments within our Emory community.
  • In January 2013, the Class and Labor 1 Committee released their report and recommendations centered around issues related to staff employed across the university.
  • In October 2013, then Provost Claire E. Sterk charged the Class and Labor: Faculty Committee (Toward Faculty Eminence) on behalf of the Office of the Provost and the Office of the Executive Vice President for Business and Administration.
  • In the spring of 2016, the Toward Faculty Eminence Committee completed its charge in the development of recommendations with the Phase 2 Faculty Concerns Report.
  • In January 2019, the Toward Faculty Eminence Steering Committee finished its compilation of action plans to implement the recommendations from the earlier report .
