| IL | Adopted 02/2006 | Postsec. | Establishes the Diversifying Higher Education Faculty in Illinois Program (DFI), which combines two former programs, the Illinois Consortium for Educational Opportunity Program (ICEOP) and the Illinois Minority Graduate Incentive Program (IMGIP). The purpose of the program is to encourage minority students to enroll and complete academic programs at the post-baccalaureate level and to enhance the diversity of faculty and professional staff at Illinois higher education institutions
and agencies.
Requires eligible candidates to meet the following criteria:
--Ilinois resident
--U.S. citizens or lawful resident alien
--Racial minority
--Completed baccalaureate degree from accredited postsecondary institution
--Has been admitted as a student pursuing a doctoral, master's, or post-baccalaureate professional degree and will pursue this degree objective as a full-time student, as defined by the institution, for at least 9 months of the year
--Has signed an agreement to meet the Act's employment conditions if a DFI award is accepted
--Candidate's financial resources are such that in the absence of a DFI grant the individual will be prevented from pursuing a graduate or professional degree at the institution
--Possesses above-average academic ability to pursue a graduate or
professional degree as evidenced by (A) minimum grade point average of C+ (2.75 on a grade scale of 4.00 = A) in the last 60 hours of undergraduate work; and (B) admission to a post-baccalaureate degree program at a qualified institution of higher education.
As a condition for acceptance of the award, requires the recipient to agree to:
(1) Accept a teaching or nonteaching full-time appointment at an Illinois institution of higher education; or
(2) Accept a position as an employee of this State in an administrative, education-related position, such as administrative positions in Illinois elementary/secondary and higher education agencies; or
(3) Make a good faith effort to secure such position for a time period of no less than 5 years. A good faith effort includes actively seeking employment and maintaining contact with the institutional representative and Program Board.
Requires the recipient to accept such positions for a period equal to the number of years that he or she was a participant in the DFI grant program.
Requires the Program Board, in determining the recipients of the awards, to consider only members of traditionally underrepresented minority groups
who are underrepresented in particular fields of study.
