Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Arts & Sciences strives to maintain a diverse, equitable, and inclusive community of faculty, students, and staff across all identities and socioeconomic backgrounds. We are poised to take a global leadership role in studies of systemic inequities and the power structures that perpetuate them, and we aim for students of all identities to have equitable access to opportunities and to achieve their educational goals with equal success. While we have made important strides over the past years, much remains to be done. We need to implement strong administrative support at the university, school, and departmental levels to improve racial, ethnic, and gender diversity in the hiring and recruitment of faculty, staff, and students. We invite you to learn more about the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion initiatives and culture within Arts & Sciences.
