I am excited to announce that I have been awarded the City University of New York Diversity Projects Development Fund (DPDF) Award for the 2015-2016 fiscal year as a sole investigator. The award is sponsored by the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Human Resources Management at the Office of Recruitment and Diversity.

The Diversity Projects Development Fund (DPDF) was established by the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Human Resources Management to support educational projects, scholarly research, creative activities and other programmatic initiatives that promote multiculturalism, diversity and inclusion, affirmative action and nondiscrimination for the benefit of the University community.
