"Diversity embraces human differences while building on the commonalities; inclusion affords faculty, staff and students the opportunity to contribute, collaborate and lead, regardless of differences. These are fundamental components in developing creative, broad-thinking individuals: a multicultural faculty, staff and student body enriches dialogue and collaboration, and broadens perspectives. It is essential that we offer opportunities to create the experiences, perspectives and cultural competencies that will enable our graduates to thrive in an increasingly diverse global environment."
— President and CEO David Yager
