In recognition of its outstanding commitments to diversity and inclusion, Johns Hopkins University has earned a 2021 Higher Education Excellence in Diversity award from INSIGHT Into Diversity magazine, higher education's oldest and largest diversity magazine and website. The School of Nursing was also honored for the fourth consecutive year in the health professions category.
The HEED award measures the efforts of U.S. colleges and universities to broaden diversity through programs, outreach, student recruitment and retention, and hiring practices, among other areas. For Johns Hopkins, the award takes into account ongoing efforts including the Faculty Diversity Initiative, the Diversity Leadership Council, and the Roadmap on Diversity and Inclusion, as well as decisions such as adding gender-affirming surgery to the university's benefits package, reducing salaries of several high-ranking university leaders during the pandemic, and the hiring of new Chief Diversity Officer Katrina Caldwell.
