The Office of Belonging and Inclusion

The Office of Belonging and Inclusion is dedicated to empowering a diverse and inclusive community where every student is seen, valued, and experiences a deep sense of belonging and acceptance. We aim to create a campus environment that prioritizes human dignity, diverse worldviews, wellbeing, and inclusive perspectives. Through intentional programming, advocacy, and community engagement, we are committed to advancing student success and promote meaningful connections across differences.
