University administrators can be difficult to judge from the outside looking in, so I will reserve judgement for the people (especially faculty) that worked under her. That said, if she is hanging her hat on DEI I would be disappointed, not because it's not a noble cause but because pretty much every university and most companies are heavily vested in DEI measures, and nothing is worse than university administrators that just follow the trendy stuff (there are many, many administrator drones out there who are busy putting stuff on paper that looks good and costs lots of money but has limited impact). I would assume the extent to which she was able to stabilize the budgetary problems will be her real legacy.
