Diversity, Inclusion

& Standards

The Diversity, Inclusion, and Standards Department is a reflection of the paper's commitment to progress.This department aims to ensure that the DP reflects the variety of voices on campus and fosters an inclusive and welcoming newsroom community. The DIS department will also ensure that all members of the DP uphold and represent the standards of the Daily Pennsylvanian, Inc.

The DIS department has two unique focuses: diversity and inclusion, and standards. Within diversity and inclusion focus, the department seeks to amplify underrepresented voices and perspectives, both in the company’s staff composition and in the stories we tell. It also aims to foster a work culture where every employee feels heard, valued, and empowered.

Within standards, the department will create and host training sessions for DP staffers and ensure that the DP has clear policies and standards for its members.

Key DIS projects include leading diversity trainings, working with groups across campus, reviewing sensitive content, and working on our annual diversity report.
