Statement on Student and Outreach Services Diversity and Pluralism
The University of North Dakota and the Division of Student and Outreach Services take pride in their mission to meet the individual and group needs of a diverse and pluralistic society through education, research, and service. The people served by and associated with the University vary widely; all must be valued for the richness their different cultures, heritages, beliefs, perspectives, and ideas bring to this community. Diversity in the Division of Student and Outreach Services is constituted by the full participation of persons of different racial and ethnic heritage, age, gender, socioeconomic background, sexual orientation, persons with disabilities; and of people from other countries. Of particular importance is the University's longstanding commitment to support the cultures and traditions of the Historically Underrepresented Populations (African, Asian, Hispanic/Latino, and American Indian) while providing learning and teaching experiences that enhance their self-determination, educational advantages, and professional opportunities. Policies and procedures of the Division of Student and Outreach Services encourage its students, faculty, staff, and alumni to foster the awareness and sensitivity necessary for acceptance and understanding of all people in society. |
