Equity Scorecard
The Equity Scorecard is an instrumental tool for creating greater awareness of, and accountability for, equity gaps across key facets of our institutions and system which are relevant to impacting equity, diversity, and inclusion using measurable key performance indicators.
The Equity Scorecard empowers Minnesota State campus leaders to foster institutional change through data-informed decision making.
Faculty and staff can access the Equity Scorecard through OEI Connect. The Minnesota State Office of Equity and Inclusion is identifying options for making the Equity Scorecard public-facing.
The Equity Scorecard Aims to:
- Increase Transparency: Increase institutional responsibility, monitoring, and accountability necessary to realize greater equity, diversity, and inclusion.
- Make Disparities Evident: Provide clear and readily understandable picture of disparities for key dimensions of equity, diversity, and inclusion relevant to colleges and universities.
- Facilitate Improvement Process: Inform strategy and facilitate process of holistically identifying areas of need, opportunities for improvement, and existing areas of success pertinent to advancing equity, diversity, and inclusion.
- Encourage Inquiry and Targeted Action: Prompts further questions about the conditions and factors which impede equitable outcomes for all students and employees.
- Support Assessment: Assess progress in, and impact of strategy on, pursuing equity, diversity, and inclusion objectives and goals.
- Demonstrate Commitment: Demonstrating commitment to equity in student and employee outcomes and experiences.
