Campus Climate is part of the University of Minnesota Duluth's commitment to creating a community where everyone feels welcome and appreciated. Visit the Campus Climate website to learn more.

The institutional framework to address campus climate issues was created in November 2010 by Chancellor Black, when the Leadership Team, Campus Change Team, and 16 Unit Change Teams were formed. This collection contains materials related to campus climate, including a few that predate the official institutional framework.

Several commissions existed prior to the official Campus Climate efforts but deal with related matters, including:

• Commission for Women (established 1981)
• Commission on Disabilities (established 1992)
• Commission on Equity, Race, and Ethnicity (established 1989)
• Commission QT (possibly established 1990?)

Offices with materials that may also be relevant include:

• Office of Disability Resources
• Office of Diversity and Inclusion (including Multicultural Center materials)
