Advancing together through diversity, equity, & inclusive excellence
We respect individual rights to self-identification and recognize that no one culture is intrinsically superior to another.
At 麻豆国产AV, we understand that diversity, equity and inclusive excellence are indispensable to the experience of our campus community members. Diversity enhances and enriches the educational, employment, and community experience. Over the years, a series of committees and task forces have been formed to make recommendations on how to continually advance these issues on our campus-- what is now the Monarch Task Force for Inclusive Excellence. Our goal of Inclusive Excellence encourages diversity in every aspect of the university.
What is Inclusive Excellence?
Inclusion is the active, intentional, and ongoing engagement with diversity - in people, in the curriculum, in the co-curriculum, and in communities. Inclusive Excellence is a level of institutional success that can only be realized in diverse communities where all constituencies have equitable opportunities to succeed.
