Loyola Is Committed to Inclusive Excellence
We’re taking action to make diversity, equity, and inclusion a priority.
Goal One: Create Opportunity
In alignment with our strategic plan, we’re building an inclusive community where students are supported and embraced for who they are.
Goal Two: Teach Our Values
From orientation to a competency requirement in the core curriculum, we teach the fundamental message of our faith that we are all children of God, equal in God’s eyes.
Goal Three: Live Our Values
Our faculty and staff represent the diversity of our community, and we prioritize financing and resources to realize our goal of inclusive excellence.
