The Boston University Computing and Data Sciences Student Government announced in a letter to constituents Friday it is launching a new CDS Student Advisory Board.
Kendi serves as the founder and director of the BU Center for Antiracist Research, which launched in July with the stated mission of understanding, explaining and solving seemingly intractable problems of racial inequity and injustice.
Three advisory committees composed of current BU faculty will be tasked with various administrative responsibilities for BU’s new Computing and Data Sciences department by Feb. 28. The committees will provide preliminary recommendations to Jean Morrison, university provost and chief academic officer.
