The Office of the Vice President and Chief Officer for Diversity and Equity assists and monitors all units of the University in their efforts to recruit and retain faculty, staff and students from historically underrepresented groups and to prove affirmative and supportive environments for work and life at the University of Virginia.
We commit ourselves to a vision of leadership in diversity and equity, not out of a reluctant sense of obligation
but because only by enriching ourselves and embracing
diversity can we become the leading institution we
aspire to be.
The Office for Diversity and Equity (ODE) provides
leadership, information, consultation, coordination, and assistance to the various units and constituencies within
the University of Virginia in an effort to embrace diversity
and equity as pillars of excellence, synergize actions at
all levels of the institution, and cultivate inclusiveness
and mutual respect throughout the community. We
also reach beyond the University to establish beneficial
relationships with individual and institutional partners
who share mutual goals and interests.
At the University of Virginia, we envision a community of understanding, tolerance and respect. Learn more. |
