Hello,
In response to question one, The College of the Florida Keys has no records reflecting or documenting action as a result of, or intended to satisfy, the commitments made in the January 18, 2023, "Florida College System Presidents Statement on Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Critical Race Theory," available at https://www.fldoe.org/core/fileparse.php/5673/urlt/FCSDEIstatement.pdf.
In response to question two, The College of the Florida Keys has one email from CFK President and CEO, Dr. Jonathan Gueverra, to his three Vice-Presidents, the Director of his Office ,and the Executive Director of Marketing. This email is simply forwarding the FCS Presidents DEI statement with a remark that he (Dr. Geuverra) was not permitted to share this document until it was read at the State Board of Education meeting on January 18, 2022. I have attached that email.
In response to question three, The College of the Florida Keys responded to Memorandum 23-021 as required. An email was submitted by the CFK Controller, Heather Margiotta, copying Dr. Brittany Snyder (CFO and EVP) to Chancellor Hebda on January 10, 2023. That email and the excel spreadsheet submitted are both attached.
