Re: | Recent Changes in the Office of Equal Opportunity and the Sexual Harassment/Title IX Complaint Resolution Office |
As many of you know, the Office of Equal Opportunity and Sexual Harassment/Title IX Complaint Resolution Office moved to Phelps Hall a year or so ago. More recently, there have been some staffing changes that are outlined below.
Carol Sauceda, Director of Sexual Harassment Prevention and Diversity Education, moved from the Women's Center to Phelps Hall in order to combine the efforts and increase the proximity of her important position with those of the Offices of Equal Opportunity and Sexual Harassment/Title IX Complaint Resolution.
For those who are unfamiliar with the new Phelps Hall location, the offices occupy rooms 3211 - 3217, 3218, and 3220 of the 3rd floor, north wing, to the left of the main elevators.
In addition to combining their efforts, the two units recently welcomed a new office manager to perform general office duties for both departments. Nadia Tapia joined the team on November 10th, and she will be a valuable addition. Nadia is a UCSB alumna, having graduated magna cum laude in June 2007 with a Bachelor of Arts in Latin American & Iberian Studies and Spanish. While pursuing her degree, Nadia held administrative positions in accounting and law firms and participated extensively in various service organizations, academic honor societies, and professional associations. Nadia comes to her new post with a strong history of related work experience and a demonstrated commitment to diversity, social equity issues, and community service.
