UWGB begins 'Diversity Circles' News-Chronicle Green Bay Mayor Jim Schmitt and Green Bay Area Chamber of Commerce President Paul Jadin will help kick off "Brown County Diversity Circles" at 6:30 p.m. Monday at the YWCA of Green Bay-De Pere, 230 S. Madison St. The keynote speaker for the kickoff will be Fran Frazier, an award-winning consultant and facilitator for the national Study Circles Resource Center. Diversity Circles bring together people from different backgrounds and viewpoints to discuss issues of importance to communities. "Brown County Diversity Circles" was developed by a volunteer coalition that reflects the community's distinctive personality. Project sponsorship includes the three higher education institutions in Northeastern Wisconsin (the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay, St. Norbert College and Northeast Wisconsin Technical College), leaders from Hmong, Hispanic, American Indian and African American populations, and a variety of civic organizations that endorse the project's goals. The first round of Diversity Circles discussions, which will address issues related to immigration and the impact of Brown County's changing population, begins later this month.
