Oluwafunmbi is from Atlanta, Georgia and is majoring in Behavioral Neuroscience with a minor in Health, Medicine and Society as well as Chinese.

The Diversity and Inclusion committee of Student Senate works toward its mission through meeting with administrators, communicating with cultural organizations, and hosting informative, inclusive events. In the past, the D&I Committee hosted events like the BLM Town Hall in the summer of 2020 and hosted a Diversity Panel during full Senate this past fall. This past year, the D&I Committee turned inward and evaluated how inclusive Senate itself is and held conversations, called Candid Conversations, about how Senate can become more accountable for their performance and also how Senate can do a better job by representing all Lehigh students in all aspects of student life.
