FORWARD Advocates and Allies

Advocates

FORWARD Advocates are faculty men who have a proven record of supporting faculty women in their department, colleges, and the university. Advocates are expected to be active and effective proponents of gender diversity and equality specifically in terms of increasing the number of female faculty, encouraging the hiring and promotion of female faculty in administrative positions, and ensuring the fair and equitable treatment of women within their NDSU units.

Advocates will be selected for one-year, renewable terms; modest compensation is provided.

Allies

FORWARD Allies are faculty men willing to identify themselves as allies of faculty women. The committee seeks representation from every academic unit at NDSU. Although membership is open to all faculty members, we particularly seek the participation of nontenured faculty members who will be tenured in the next five years in order to develop a pool of Allies from which future Advocate (see above) can be selected. To become a FORWARD Ally, a male faculty member needs to participate in a FORWARD Ally training session and complete the Ally Agreement below.
