The University: Diversity


The University of Nevada, Reno is committed to realize and sustain a diverse, inclusive and welcoming environment for all University community members, including students, faculty, faculty colleagues and alumni. The University recognizes and embraces the critical importance of diversity in preparing students for global citizenship and is committed to a culture of excellence, inclusion, and accessibility.

The Office of Diversity Initiatives represents an institutional commitment to make the academic and social transition of underrepresented students to college life successful through exposure to academic programs and student services. Diversity Initiatives works closely with academic and administrative units to attract, advance and retain a diverse faculty to strengthen academic excellence. 

In March 2016, President Marc Johnson said, “Diversity is at the core of our educational mission as a University. By creating opportunities for student learning that are directly related to a campus environment that values diversity, equity and inclusion, we become a better University - one that respects, supports and values all members of its diverse learning community.”
