Diversity

"We have become an academic community that mirrors the varied faces of our society. The challenges of our time require the energy and ideas of all our people. We cannot afford to leave out the creativity and innovations of any segment of society. But beyond this practical argument, equality of opportunity is a matter of simple justice. It's the right thing to do, and this university will do it."

President Mark Emmert

For University of Washington students to succeed in a diverse, global community, their academic experience must reflect that community in all its differences. As a UW staff member, you have the opportunity to make that difference. Every day, your voice can speak to the power of an inclusive community—a community that celebrates differences in opinion, background, and experience, as well as ethnicity, gender, disability, or age. When you contribute your skills at work, you also contribute your unique perspective, and your participation enriches us all. Together, we can build a university community that reflects—and respects—the diversity around us; a community where everyone can make a difference. Join us.
