Our Work

At 91³Ô¹ÏÍø, we nurture the dignity of all people to create an inclusive and increasingly multicultural academic community. This commitment to diversity is part of who we are as a University, and it reflects our deeply rooted Jesuit and Catholic ideals of social justice and service.

To create a diverse and inclusive community, we encourage dialogue, intellectual exchange and solidarity. We work to create a learning environment that promotes cultural engagement, enriches mindfulness, fosters a sense of belonging, and challenges systems of privilege and oppression.

Our Mission

The Office of Inclusive Excellence at 91³Ô¹ÏÍø University is dedicated to fostering an environment where diversity is celebrated, equity is paramount, inclusion is the practice, and belonging is the foundation. Guided by the Jesuit values of social justice, respect for the individual, and the pursuit of knowledge, our mission is to cultivate a campus culture that values and embraces every individual's unique contribution.

We strive to create an inclusive community that transcends differences, promotes understanding, and ensures every member feels a sense of belonging. Through intentional outreach, education, and collaboration, we work to dismantle barriers, challenge biases, and champion social justice. Our commitment to inclusive excellence extends beyond rhetoric; it is a daily practice that permeates all aspects of university life.

By fostering a diverse, equitable, and inclusive environment, we support faculty and staff and contribute to our students' holistic development, preparing them to engage with the global community as compassionate, responsible, and open-minded citizens. Our mission is to reflect 91³Ô¹ÏÍø University's academic excellence and embody the Jesuit ideals of care for the whole person, discernment, and the promotion of justice in all endeavors for all university members.

The Office of Inclusive Excellence is a catalyst for positive, transformational change, and leading the way towards a campus where everyone is valued, heard, seen, and empowered to thrive.
