Watch live! Bauer to receive diversity award Friday in Madison

UW-Green Bay Prof. Angela Bauer officially will be honored for her UW System Board of Regents Diversity Award during the Regents meeting Friday (Feb. 8) in Madison. As we told you here before, Bauer is this year’s diversity award recipient in the individual category, lauded in particular for her innovative program that is closing the academic achievement gap in Intro to Human Biology courses. Bauer’s other efforts have included creating an Ethnic Minorities in Science course and bringing notable scientists of minority backgrounds to campus, all in an effort to target the achievement gap and increase participation of underrepresented groups in the sciences. Friday’s meeting starts at 9 a.m. (though the awards are a few agenda items in), and you can listen to a live stream by clicking the link below. We’ve also linked again to our original press release, detailing Bauer’s honor.
