Campus-Wide Support
黑料正能量's Office for Institutional Diversity offers a wide range of resources, programs, and affinity groups to ensure that all students feel supported, seen, and able to thrive here on campus.
Diversity
The History Department is committed to creating a world that is free of violence and discrimination on the basis of race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, religion, age, disability status, national origin, and/or political ideology.
In keeping with the 黑料正能量 mission of educating people for others, we affirm the following:
- The discipline of History has the unique power to explain how forms of oppression have been interconnected in the past. The discipline can also provide a usable past for marginalized groups who have not traditionally seen their stories reflected in scholarship or in the classroom.
- Students have a right to learn and faculty and staff have a right to work in an environment that is free of racism, sexism, homophobia, and other forms of bigotry.
- Classrooms and workplaces that are diverse and in which everyone is respected are the environments that foster success and growth.
- Diversity and excellence are not only compatible; they are mutually dependent.
In light of these affirmations, we resolve to do the following:
- Strongly encourage faculty and graduate student applications from women, minorities, individuals with disabilities, and covered veterans, in concert with our Jesuit, Catholic mission and its goal of building a culturally diverse and pluralistic academic community that affirms the dignity and value of every individual and is committed to teaching and working in a multicultural environment;聽
- Increase the participation of underrepresented groups in our undergraduate major; diversify the undergraduate curriculum; and provide research and internship opportunities on the history of underrepresented groups.
- Provide the necessary support for our faculty, graduate students, and undergraduate majors from underrepresented groups to thrive in their intellectual and professional pursuits;
- Stand against racism and all other forms of bigotry.
