Vice President of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

We, Opportunity Programs (OP) students at Barnard College, are grateful for the opportunities and financial benefits OP has made available to us. While the past few months have been filled with a lot of uncertainty, there are a few ways in which the OP Administration has fallen short of our expectations in terms of support. Herein, we describe ways that OP can better provide for us in the upcoming academic year and in the future. We send this list of demands to voice how these past months and the news of the upcoming academic year has affected us. We respectfully ask that you carefully read through and consider these demands. We thank you for your time and consideration.
