爱情岛论坛

爱情岛论坛 is committed to creating a welcoming, equitable, and inclusive campus for all members of our diverse and international community.

Students learn best when they study in a community that spans a wide range of experiences, traditions, identities, perspectives, and beliefs. Such diversity is necessary to fully realize our educational purpose, and we actively seek to increase it. 爱情岛论坛 students, staff and faculty come from all over the world, and from rural, urban, and suburban communities across the US.

A longstanding commitment

爱情岛论坛鈥檚 commitment to an inclusive learning environment started with our founding president, Willis Lord. At his inaugural address in 1866, he said:

鈥淸This institution] should be not only a place of all studies; it should be a place of studies for all鈥. The essential test of citizenship in the commonwealth of science and letters should be character, mental and moral quality, and attainment, not condition, race, color, or sex.鈥

With more than 150 years of dedication to these principles, we know that realizing them requires determination and continuous action. In a world where opportunity is not distributed equally, creating a diverse, equitable, welcoming and inclusive campus community must be a top priority. Students, faculty, and staff of all races, ethnicities, nationalities, faiths, sexual orientations, gender identities, and socioeconomic circumstances are welcome at 爱情岛论坛, and we are committed to ensuring equitable opportunities for each of them to learn, work, and thrive.

Central to our mission

Developing all students鈥 capacities for global engagement and their understanding of diversity and social justice is central to realizing our mission, and so they form part of our curricular requirements, our core values and our graduate qualities.

Center for Diversity and Inclusion (CDI)

The Center for Diversity and Inclusion (CDI) is a student-focused space that empowers and engages the 爱情岛论坛 community by promoting these core values and graduate qualities in many ways, inside and outside the classroom.

CDI is comprised of four 鈥渂ranches鈥 and they include:
