The Network for Inclusive Leadership and Engagement (NILE) is a selected group of professional staff members, faculty members with academic appointments, and administrators from across the Reynolda Campus.

The primary charge of the NILE is to provide counsel, feedback, and insight to the Vice President for Diversity and Inclusion and CDO, related to campus efforts that address and promote diversity, inclusion, and equity. These efforts will focus on offering programs, influencing policy, and elevating practices aimed at increasing Wake Forest’s mission towards fostering a more inclusive community.

Lastly, NILE members will serve as liaisons between their respective departments, offices, and units, and the Office of Diversity and Inclusion, benefiting from the mutual exchange of programs and events, “promising practices,” and professional standards within their particular fields.
