The University of South Alabama has been honored as an institution committed to diversity for 2019. Dr. Paul Frazier, chief diversity and inclusion officer, accepted the award from Minority Access Inc., during its National Role Models Conference held recently in National Harbor, Md.

The award honors USA’s commitment to enrich the lives of students while providing a good education and stressing the importance of diversity and inclusion at the University.

“This is an important award, and it enables the University of South Alabama to be recognized on a national stage for its commitment to diversity and inclusion,” Frazier said.

Minority Access is a nonprofit organization that assists academic institutions, government and private agencies, and corporations in diversifying campuses and work sites.
