At the School of Public and International Affairs, we believe that a thriving academic community is one where all members feel welcomed, valued, and empowered to succeed. Our work is grounded in the idea that knowledge grows in an environment that fosters belonging, mutual respect, and the free exchange of ideas.
We are committed to cultivating a culture where varied perspectives, lived experiences, and identities strengthen our mission. By engaging in open dialogue and creating spaces where everyone can contribute meaningfully, we prepare future leaders to have a positive, lasting impact on their communities—locally, nationally, and globally.
