The College’s Policy on equal employment opportunity supports and is consistent with the College’s commitment to enhancing diversity and inclusiveness.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Mission Statement
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion is broader than our commitment to equal opportunity associated with the protected classifications identified under local, state or federal law. Diversity, Equity and Inclusion embraces diverse experiences, perspectives, ideas, styles and affiliations as well as fosters an inclusive environment. We believe that we are much stronger as a College as a result of enriching our diversity and creating a culture that promotes inclusion. We strive to ensure that we have policies and practices which are respectful of diversity and inclusion.
