ÂÌñÉç

At ÂÌñÉç, our students, faculty and staff represent a diversity of cultures, backgrounds and perspectives. We strive to create a safe and inclusive campus where everyone is welcome with equal access and opportunity to pursue their goals and ambitions.

The Division of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) advocates for a diverse and equitable campus that promotes a sense of safety and belonging for students from all backgrounds. DEI provides training and programming that promote the core values of the University: unity, inclusion and equity, and guidance regarding issues of bias and discrimination. Learn more about DEI's work.

The Multicultural Resource Center (MRC) furthers ÂÌñÉç's mission of inclusiveness through workshops, programs and services that empower and support underrepresented communities, religious communities and student cultural organizations. The center’s lounge is a welcoming space where students can relax, study or connect with peers.

The Q Center provides resources, educational opportunities and social justice initiatives that affirm sexual diversity and gender identity and expression. The center promotes intersectionality and fosters a strong sense of community, empowering all students to be their full, authentic selves.

The Services for Students with Disabilities (SSD) supports all students who self-identify as having a disability in successfully achieving their academic goals. SSD helps to ensure that everyone has equal access to educational and extracurricular programming, regardless of ability.

The New Student of Color Mentoring Program helps incoming students navigate University life by establishing meaningful relationships with other students, faculty and staff of color. The mentoring program allows students to expand their network and foster connections that will help them succeed now and in the future.

The ÂÌñÉç Interfaith Council (BUIC) is comprised of various religious institutions and organizations from around the greater ÂÌñÉç area that serve the religious and spiritual needs of the University community. BUIC includes campus ministers/faith leaders as well as established Student Association (SA) chartered faith-based clubs. We are committed to respecting the diversity of religious experience while maintaining the integrity of beliefs.

The University is committed to providing an environment free from harassment and discrimination. Learn more about University policies on bias and the bias incident reporting process.
