Mission Statement
We strive for diversity and inclusion in the conviction that a learning community is intellectually and morally strengthened when many different voices, viewpoints and backgrounds are engaged and learning from each other.
What's Compelling about Our Approach?
- We recognize that success with diversity and inclusion requires more than just good intentions; it also requires a particular set of skills.
- We practice those skills, which include: engaging in courageous conversations; listening to understand, rather than listening to respond; understanding impact versus intent; and leaning into discomfort.
- We engage ourselves in a variety of perspectives, learning to think critically, challenge assumptions and ultimately deepen our understanding of our community and the world.
