包容性卓越战略计划

易胜博欢迎不同背景的学生,并准备他们与他人一起过上有意义的生活,并为一个更公正的世界而努力. With our Jesuit identity at the core of our mission, we believe Loyola is well-positioned to become a national model of inclusive excellence. The 多样性 of our undergraduate population mirrors that of their generation. As the demographic composition of the United States evolves, we are evolving with it. However, being diverse is a necessary but insufficient condition of inclusive excellence.

所有洛约拉学生, 教师, 工作人员, 校友, 游客必须受到欢迎, 包括, 支持, 公平地承认. 当我们能做到这一点, we will reap the full rewards of 多样性: enhanced learning outcomes, more gratifying working and living conditions, and better preparation for effective global citizenship. With this goal in mind, the Diversity, Equity & 包容委员会制定了 2022 包容性卓越战略计划 that can be summarized by three overarching goals summarized below. 在每个目标中, 您可以阅读我们概述的具体战略,以及自启动该计划以来我们为实现目标所取得的进展.
