UW System Diversity Strategic Plans

In 1988, the UW System was the first university system to adopt a long-range plan to diversify Wisconsin's 26 public colleges and universities. That plan, Design for Diversity, was based on the belief that a public university must serve all the people of the state, and must lead the way in increasing educational opportunity for targeted racial/ethnic groups: African Americans, Hispanic/Latinos, American Indians, and Asian Americans-particularly Southeast Asians. In 1998, Design for Diversity continued under the new ten-year plan, Plan 2008: Educational Quality Through Racial and Ethnic Diversity.
