<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The MIT Postdoctoral Association is looking for a new chair for the Human Affairs for 2016. This is a relatively new committee, and has been the main interface between the PDA and the MIT CRD (committee for race and diversity,
a campus-wide initiative). The HA committee also supports other camps groups looking to increase inclusiveness. The aims of the committee are to encourage fair treatment, prevent and eliminate discrimination, and foster mutual understanding and respect among
all postdocs. If you can identify with these aims, please consider serving as HA chair and get in touch with Claudia (<a href="mailto:ccwehrsp@mit.edu">ccwehrsp@mit.edu</a>) this week.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
