With New Administrator Yale SOM Addresses Issue of Diversity
This spring will be the first full semester on the job for the School of Management’s first director of community and inclusion, Tiffany Gooden.
Despite being hired in October 2014, Gooden was only introduced to the student body at large in a school-wide email last week.
Gooden, who comes to SOM from the Wharton School at the University of
Pennsylvania, said her new position encompasses working with current
students to find ways to talk about issues of diversity on campus and
alumnae to continue their connections with SOM. Since she joined the
SOM, she has been working with student affinity groups, clubs and
organizations at the school, such as SOM’s Women in Management group and
Community and Inclusion Council. Gooden also works in admissions to
help the SOM with its selection process for students from historically
underrepresented populations.
