ASABE Policy Statement on Diversity
by ASABE Board of Trustees August 1, 2004
ASABE has a history of being a diverse and strong organization.
We are committed to continuing that tradition. We value the talent
and commitment of all people who study or work in or with the profession
of engineering applicable to agricultural, food, and biological
systems. Diversity enriches and builds upon the educational experience
and improves the practice of engineering. ASABE greatly benefits
from diverse and varied perspectives, experiences, and attitudes.
We support the opportunity to successful participation of all people
in the Society. The ASABE Board of Trustees, volunteer leaders, members,
and staff pledge to work diligently to provide and atmosphere of
respect for all and to foster the contributions each can make.
ASABE, the Society for engineering in agricultural, food, and biological
systems, has 9000 members worldwide and a long history of leadership
in solving problems related to erosion control and soil and water
quality. ASABE members are uniquely qualified to generate new technical
information on soil erosion, translate that information into more
effective practices, and ensure that those who produce the world's
agricultural goods are educated accordingly
