- Have BIPOC and graduate/post-doc speakers invited to come visit us for lab meetings to give research talks: we can give more visibility by inviting more external speakers, especially when COVID makes Zoom meetings easier.
- Self and Other Nomination Sheets [Miranda + Kiana + Stephanie M.] (Success if done by January 1st, 2023)
- Create a page for nominations – Google Forms? Qualtrics?
- Identify potential sources to advertise to for self-nominations, as well
- Integrate “would you like us to try and invite this person for a lab meeting” into the reading proposal place
- Reach out to Nancy Sin about mentorship group and inviting them
- Advertising more publicly once self-nominations are made
- Revisit this and make sure that we have at least one per semester for a 12 month period (Success if done by April 15th, 2023)
- Spend more time reading about intersectional issues in psychology
- January 2022: in the very first lab meeting in January, beginning of the term invite the entire lab to find readings and submit them to a wiki page
- Revisit this and make sure that we have at least one reading per semester for a 12 month period (Success if done by April 15th, 2023)

- Email RAs to get one or two volunteers for a recent paper or a project they are working on
- Denny + Miranda will follow-up with the four RAs who expressed interest in September 2022.

- Ideally, by January 1st, 2023 we have a clear timeline for when things are going to be written and in what structure.
- What about doing videos instead of write-ups (easier to make, broader, uses existing platforms EDRG is building)?
- Build in short checking-in on some of these initiatives in smaller-scale admin meetings once a month. Evaluate for how we are doing on this by January 1st, 2023.
- Create anonymous suggestion form for lab, including EDI initiatives [Ayshe + Admin Team] (Success if done by January1st, 2022)
- Create a public RA document about expectations and typical roles RAs take in our lab, and post it on our website before the next major round of RA recruitment [ideally done by May 1st, 2023]
