Westminster College hosted the Western Pennsylvania Diversity Directors Consortium (WPDDC) for its monthly meeting Nov. 18.

Directors from Clarion, Edinboro, Robert Morris, and Slippery Rock Universities, and Thiel and Westminster Colleges were welcomed by Dr. Neal Edman, vice president for student affairs and dean of students.  Westminster President Dr. Richard Dorman led a discussion of diversity initiatives at the individual campuses.

Also attending was Dawn Chapman, Westminster associate director of admissions.

Jeannette Hubbard, Westminster director of diversity services, is a founding member of the consortium that was established in 2002.

WPDDC was created to support minority students and student leaders academically, socially, and culturally.  The group meets monthly at a different host campus to share expertise and plan ways to support, encourage, and empower minority students and educate the broader community about diversity issues.

Hubbard, who has been with Westminster since 2001, earned an undergraduate degree from Geneva College and master's degree from Duquesne University.
