Engaging education

Inclusive spaces

We are dedicated to providing a safe and welcoming environment for all our students. This commitment is evident through various initiatives, including our all gender restrooms, our intercultural center, and an on-campus faith-based space.

Key resources

We recognize that everyone has different needs. We meet them in a variety of different ways, including our on-campus pantry — where students can get essentials like toiletries and food, our gender-inclusive housing options, and our Student Accessibility Services office.

Leadership opportunities

Become a member of our Student Advisory Board (SAB) and engage in meaningful discussions with campus leadership, including our University President and Chief Diversity Officer. Promote policies and actions that positively impact a wide range of diverse groups.
