Commission on Commissions (CoCom)
The purpose of the Commission on Commissions is to support, broaden and enhance the ability of each individual commission’s impact on the campus community through intersectional partnerships among the member commissions. The CoCom provides a bridge so that the independent work of each commission can be amplified, bringing additional voices and greater visibility to identified issues. The CoCom provides a forum to discuss the ongoing work, objectives and goals of each individual commission in order to foster those activities and capitalize on intersectional ties when appropriate.
CoCom is a co-equal partner with the other diversity commissions and does not supersede or obviate the role or activities of the member commissions. CoCom serves in an advisory capacity to the NAU administration, including Vice President of Inclusive Excellence and the Center of Inclusive Excellence and Access, in matters pertaining to diversity and inclusion. Along with the individual diversity commissions, CoCom shall have the joint responsibility of examining and recommending policies, practices, and programs which affect such efforts in the NAU community.
