MEET THE NEW
Director of Equity and Inclusion Victor Cota will be working in all corners of the St. Margaret’s community to fulfill one of the school’s most important strategic initiatives. BY RYAN WOOD
T
he director of equity and inclusion is a newly created position at St. Margaret’s, yet Victor Cota believes that only tells half the story. “It’s a new position, but it’s not necessarily new work,” said Mr. Cota, who officially started his new role on August 1. “There’s already been a lot of great progress made to lay the foundation around cultural competency and the Strategic Plan. This is a chance to build on that work.” St. Margaret’s conducted a national search and comprehensive interview process to fill the school’s newest leadership position. Many highly qualified candidates were considered, but Mr. Cota’s deep understanding and expertise in the work led to his appointment this spring.
