The mission of the Office of Inclusive Excellence (OIE) is to operationalize the inclusive excellence paradigm by ensuring that the principles and practices of diversity, equity, and inclusion are embedded into all aspects of university life, including, but not exclusively, recruitment, admissions, hiring and promotion processes; curriculum and co-curriculum, and administrative structures and practices.
The Office of Inclusive Excellence plays a leadership role in cultivating a community of belonging by facilitating the knowledge, awareness, and skills critical to creating and sustaining a campus educational community and workplace environment that embraces diversity, achieves equitable outcomes for individuals and communities regardless of their identities and models inclusiveness through respectful interactions and opportunities to fully participate in the life of the university.
Making excellence inclusive is essential to becoming a student-ready campus. This work is a shared responsibility and we welcome your ideas, engagement, and expertise.
