University Career Services is dedicated to ensuring equitable access for all our students. We stand firmly against all types of racism, inequality, and discrimination. Our team stands together as one that believes inclusivity and belonging are especially critical in the work we do with the diverse student population that we serve.
The curated list of resources below is intended to support our students’ ability to bring their whole self to work through an appreciation that embracing what makes us diverse promotes innovation, understanding, and overall success in the workplace. These resources include several categories aimed at students interested in issues of equity and inclusive excellence within the workplace. This list, while extensive, is not complete.
