What is Inclusive Excellence?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Inclusive Excellence recognizes and celebrates how well an institution values, engages, and includes the rich diversity of students, staff, faculty, administrators, alumni, and broader community members. The Association of American Colleges & Universities understands inclusive excellence as a fundamental goal \u201cof higher education and as resources for learning that are valuable for all students, vital to democracy and a democratic workforce and to the global position and wellbeing of the United States\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Inclusion is active, intentional, and ongoing engagement with diversity – in the curriculum, in the co-curriculum, and in communities (intellectual, social, cultural, geographical) with which individuals might connect – in ways that increase awareness, content knowledge, cognitive sophistication, and emphatic understanding of the complex ways individuals interact within systems and institutions.”<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A course may offer diverse strategies and pedagogical approaches that are not inclusive.  A community may be diverse but not inclusive. Rather, inclusivity engages all of its diversity in the service of students, staff, teacher-scholar, and organizational learning. Striving for inclusive excellence makes certain that diverse way<\/span>s of being, doing, and knowing receive equitable voice, participation, and action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
