· programs that promote the participation of diverse populations in academic disciplines in which they are traditionally under-represented;
· seminars, workshops, educational activities or scholarly research related to diversity and/or multiculturalism; and
· programs that incorporate the results of research projects on under-represented groups into the general curriculum
