Diversity Affairs
Promoting Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

As Skyhawks, we are dedicated to building an inclusive community that values and embraces diversity. Through active efforts to understand the unique backgrounds of our community members and by celebrating our collective contributions to campus life and learning, we strive to be agents of change in creating a more equitable world.

Diversity Affairs plays a crucial role in supporting various centers and groups on campus, such as the Black Student Resource Center, Gender & Sexuality Resource Center, Native American Center, and El Centro de Muchos Colores.

Furthermore, we are collaboratively developing a comprehensive diversity, equity, and inclusion plan. This plan will outline specific aims and objectives to guide us in transforming our campus community to be even more respectful of students, faculty, and staff from all backgrounds.

Your support is invaluable, whether you contribute to the overarching Diversity Affairs Fund, which fuels campus-wide Diversity, Equity & Inclusion efforts, or specific program funds supporting a particular area. We sincerely appreciate your support. Thank you!
