Awards Committee Action Plan 2016-17Statement of Purpose
To engage and connect alumni with Duke and each other and to celebrate their service to Duke and the world.
Initial State–6/30/16
v Process for identifying candidates further enhanced and improved
v Awards ceremony lunch to kick off the Volunteer Leadership Conference during Homecoming weekend a huge success
v Annual calendar for the awards “process” revised to facilitate comparisons of candidates nominated (ie: reviewed Distinguished Alumni nominee carryovers at fall committee meeting and allowed more time for DAA and University-wide staff to cull the lists to the most qualified candidates)
v Engaged DAA and University-wide staff more in the nomination and selectionprocess
Key Strategic Initiatives
v Celebrate the service of Duke alums to the University and their communities through the Forever Duke, C.A. Duke, Beyond Duke and Distinguished Alumni awards
v Work with Director of Volunteer Engagement to determine ways for regional volunteer leaders to recognize volunteers and programs
v Review and recommend other means of DAA recognition of alumni in addition to formal awards. In particular, focus on recognizing outstanding volunteers and programs in the regions
v Further efforts to expand the pool of potential award winners through outreach to alums and University-wide staff, particularly through DAA regional groups, affinity groups and the DAA Board, as well as with the assistance of the Director of Graduate and Professional Schools Engagement
Target State – 6/30/17
v Extraordinary cohort of highly deserving winners selected for 2017 DAA awards
v Consistent guidelines, criteria and descriptions are in placefor all awards on Duke websites and in written materials
v Detailed strategy developed to get DAA regional groups and affinity groups involved in identifying candidates for awards
v Paths in place to recognize regional volunteers and programs and to publicize their success
v Unique and exciting ways sourced to award and showcase winners while celebrating what it means to be Forever Duke (especially for Beyond Duke winners who may not be able to attend a formal awards ceremony)
v Strategies identified to utilize award winners as speakers, regional leaders and DAA spokespeople at large
Top Underlying Beliefs and AssumptionsWe can achieve our goals assuming…
v The committee receives input on worthy candidates to receive DAA awards
v The committee receives candidates from all schools for all awards that represent a diverse population of the alumni body

Diversity and Inclusion Task Force Action Plan 2016-17Statement of Purpose
To engage and connect the entire range of diverse alumni with Duke, and encourage/support activity of Affinity Groups.
Initial State – 6/30/16
v Following a FY16 audit there are 15 active
affinity groups operating on campus and in the regions with coordination and
support from DAA Campus Engagement
and Regional teams
v Affinity groups are divided into two categories, recognized and identity, with
differing levels of volunteer
responsibility and DAA support. The
most active affinity groups are identity
groups - DBA, DUHLAA, Duke LGBTQ Network, Women’s Forum, and
DEMAN.
v 20 regional identity group chapters were
launched in FY16
v Tracking metrics on identity group
annual expenses and registration
numbers
v Informal process for nominating and
placing identity group representatives
onto DAA regional boards
v Informal process for creating and maintaining new recognized groups
v Informal co-branding of affinity group
events
Key Strategic Initiatives
v Maintain on-going dialogue with identity groups to
inform DAA’s direction and programming
v Create a deeper pool of qualified nominees to fill
volunteer roles, regional boards, DAA Board and
University-wide volunteer boards
v Increase membership
v Define affinity group volunteer roles and
responsibilities
v Strengthen the DAA’s all-call programming through
diversity of identity, opinion, passions, focus,
background, experiences, etc.
v Launch and maintain active regional
identity group chapters in all Tier 1 regions
with local DAA regional board support
Target State – 6/30/17
v Intentional diversification of DAA all-call programs taking place on campus and in the regions
v Affinity group leaders serve as
energized and informed members of DAA regional boards and assist them in deepening affinity-specific engagement in the regions. Best practices are shared between regions.
v Pipeline of diverse leaders for Duke boards and programs has been established. Each affinity group representative to DAA regional boards
has a programming committee and each national affinity board has a Chair-Elect
v Identity group engagement metrics
tracked annually in more depth (registered vs. attended, post-event surveys) and measurable goals developed for future engagement over 5 year time frame
v Consistent effective communication between affinity groups and the DAA in the regions and on-campus
v Formal application and launch process implemented for new recognized and online-only groups using DAA Network resources
v Asian American Alumni Association established
Top Underlying Beliefs and AssumptionsWe can achieve our goals assuming…
v Both DAA and Affinity Groups can articulate benefits of
diversity
v The committee has significant input from Affinity Group
leaders
v Affinity leadership has the full support of the DAA
