The rubric identifies three areas of focus for assessing an applicant's dedication to DEI: knowledge, track record, and plans for advancing the ideology. Preferred candidates, who score a 4-5, have a"consistent track record that spans multiple years" and that is spread throughout research and teaching, for example. Ideally, a candidate would have led a student organization that"supports underrepresented individuals."
