diversity that we have at NIU and to create innovations that draw and retain students to NIU — students of diverse background and experiences — is certainly worth very serious consideration,” Douglass said.

If the academic task force approves the major proposal, the program will then need approval from
the Board of Trustees and the Illinois Board of Higher Education. These processes could take six to 12 months, depending on how backed up the Illinois Board of Higher Education is, Douglass said. “This is a movement that [we’re] just going to continue until we are ready to move forward with the university and all of that,” Gyant said. “We can’t do anything until this prioritization and the financial situation of the university is better.”
