We believe that students, faculty and staff should reflect the diversity of our society and that they should see themselves represented in the materials that we teach.
We acknowledge the institutionalized inequalities that limit access to higher education and the ways in which the school has benefited from them, including the indigenous land on which Quinnipiac University stands.
