The Office of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion seeks to empower students from all communities

MISSION

The Office of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (ODEI) seeks to empower ESU students, faculty, and staff from all communities to improve their college experience by increasing access and equity within academic, civic, and co-curricular spaces. The ODEI commits to engage and empower ESU communities through intentional continuous advocacy, education, dialogue, and support to influence campus culture and promote inclusive excellence.

The office assists in the programming of cultural events which promote diversity awareness, cultural pride, and collaborative efforts across disciplines, engaging students, staff, faculty, and community members. The office seeks to provide a culture of civic dialogue and a campus that is safe and supportive for everyone to develop their cultural identity without fear of harassment and with the support of others striving to do the same.
