On February 24, 2021, IUPUI Chancellor Nasser H. Paydar delivered the campus's first ever 100% virtual Report to the Community. With a special focus on IUPUI's anti-racist initiatives and work towards a more diverse campus, the chancellor also discussed fall enrollment, community engagement, economic impact, as well as the comprehensive efforts the campus has undertaken to fight COVID-19, including the innovative work of researchers across the campus.
Chancellor Paydar invited Brian Payne, President and CEO of the Central Indiana Community Foundation, and Tony Mason, President and CEO of the Indianapolis Urban League, to join him as co-presenters to emphasize the collective work that organizations across the city of Indianapolis are doing in the fight against systemic racism and towards greater equity for all.
