“We don’t reflect the diversity of this state. Not with the students. Not with the faculty. Not with the staff,” Todd Saliman said. “It’s about more than just recruiting people from diverse communities ... We need a culture that makes people feel welcome.'
“He’s definitely saying the right things,” Colorado Latinos Vote director Chuck Montoya said after the Colorado Springs forum.
At CU-Colorado Springs, “mending bridges between students of color and the campus police department and the faculty and staff” looms as a challenge where a committed new president might make a difference, said senior Miles Jones, 22, a pre-law and communications major who serves as chapter president of the Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity.
Colorado leaders in their letters to regents emphasized Saliman’s demonstrated ability to work with regents over the past nine months as CU’s interim president — following the resignation under pressure last June of former president Mark Kennedy, a conservative former congressman from Minnesota. “That’s all right. He never wears it on his sleeve,” said Benson, in an interview, acknowledging Saliman lacks fund-raising experience but saying he’s confident he can operate in conservative circles. Benson cited a lunch with Republican donors where he invited Saliman to help represent CU.
