Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

At American College of Education, we believe that the best learning environment for students and staff is one in which we encounter viewpoints and experiences that are different, yet complementary to ours. This environment is fostered by the presence of persons with diverse backgrounds.  While a necessary precondition, diversity is in and of itself, insufficient.  To create and maintain a truly inclusive learning community, we must strive to make all feel equally valued.  We may celebrate diversity, but we “live” inclusion.
