Community Supports and Addressing Harm

һԹ prides itself as an inclusive and welcoming space for everyone, a place where all our community members feel safe and free to bring their full selves to their workplace and classrooms.

Community Resources

As an institution of higher learning, we welcome folks to engage in respectful discourse with each other. However, wherever humans interact, people can be harmed intentionally or unintentionally.
