The College of Education and Human Ecology is a catalyst for change, and a champion of equity, justice and inclusion. While we support equity, justice and inclusion across various diversities, we seek to be explicit and intentional in our efforts for Black lives.
We commit to challenge and respond to racism, violence, bias, harassment and discrimination that are a threat to Black lives. We do this to affirm our college as a place where representation and differences are valued and celebrated. We will support the rich diversities and arrays of excellence, intellect and talent in our society.
