Ivy Tech Terre Haute Names Director of Diversity, Equity, and Belonging and Plans to Open New Center

TERRE HAUTE | GREENCASTLE – Ivy Tech Terre Haute is proud to announce the appointment of Sonja Jordan as the campus’ new director of diversity, equity, and belonging. With Jordan’s leadership, Ivy Tech is taking a significant step forward in its journey towards embracing diversity and promoting belonging.
“I am honored to serve as the new director of diversity, equity, and belonging,” said Jordan. “Diversity is not just a concept, but a commitment to fostering an inclusive environment where
every individual's unique background and perspective are not only valued but celebrated.” Jordan has served as the college's diversity lead for 4 years prior to being named the director. Her commitment goes far beyond the College, Jordan is involved with various organizations across the Wabash Valley and recently participated in United Way’s African American Board Leadership Institute. “We are thrilled to welcome Sonja Jordan into her role as our diversity, equity, and belonging director. I am confident that her passion and expertise will make a lasting impact at Ivy Tech
and in our community,” said Nina Storey, vice chancellor of student success. In conjunction with this appointment, Ivy Tech is also excited to announce its plans to open a Diversity, Equity, and Belonging Center. Made possible by the READI grant, this center
represents a dedicated space where students, faculty, staff, and the broader community can engage in meaningful dialogue, access resources, and collaborate on initiatives that advance diversity, equity, and belonging throughout the College. Long-time and valued Ivy Tech employee, Jaime Sullivan, director of disability services, also joins the Diversity, Equity, and Belonging Center. Sullivan’s support accommodates a wide range of diverse needs - including physical, medical, neurological, and learning disabilities and promotes accessibility for all.
