Office of Inclusive Excellence

“Where everyone belongs, Where excellence thrives”

The Office of Inclusive Excellence supports the successful transition, engagement, and persistence for historically underrepresented communities such as racially diverse student populations such as Asian/Pacific Islander, African American/Black, Hispanic/Latinx, and Multiracial students; students within the LGBTQ+ community; and/or students who are first in their families to attend college. The Office of Inclusive Excellence also provides educational outreach to the entire campus community through programming, awareness months and collaborative efforts with student organizations and university departments. With the goal of "creating meaningful connections," the Office of Inclusive Excellence focuses intensely on the promotion of an inclusive campus environment for all students to enjoy.

As students learn more about issues facing other cultures, they can explore their own life journeys through new perspectives.

Our Pillars

1

Inclusivity

It’s in our name and it is our game. Inclusivity ensures that all students feel welcome, valued, and empowered to succeed. It's the lifeblood of the office, fostering a sense of belonging.

2

Advocacy

Whether we’re advocating for students, staff or faculty, we want to make sure everyone is heard. Advocacy underscores the proactive role the office takes in pushing for systemic change both within and beyond the university's walls. It's about being the voice for those who've been historically silenced or marginalized.

3

Empowerment

Empowerment is about giving students the tools they need to succeed, not just academically but also personally and socially. Empowerment turns the transient college years into a launching pad for lifelong success.
