Jeffrey Coleman will be Framingham State University vice president for diversity, inclusion, and community engagement on Jan. 3.
Framingham State University has named Jeffrey Coleman, the Kennesaw State University deputy chief diversity officer, as FSU’s vice president for diversity, inclusion, and community engagement.
“We are very happy to have Dr. Coleman join Framingham State University to lead our Diversity, Inclusion and Community Engagement (DICE) office,” said FSU President Nancy Niemi in a Tuesday press release. “He brings deep experience to the position and will serve as an important advisor to me and to our whole university community on issues and policies involving antiracism, diversity, equity, and inclusion.”
Prior to his role at Kennesaw State in Georgia, Coleman was director of the multicultural center and multicultural programs at Georgia State University in Atlanta, and starting in 2005, was the assistant director of multicultural affairs at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.
Coleman fills the vacancy left by Costanza Cabello, who stepped down in 2021 to take on a role as vice president of equity programs at State Street Bank in Boston. Education professor Wardell Powell will continue to serve as interim chief diversity officer until Coleman steps into his role on Jan. 3.
