Building a Beloved Community
Rutgers’ campuses, distinct in location and culture, make up a thriving university composed of students, faculty, and staff from all lived experiences.
Our commitment to building a "beloved community" is foundational to our efforts to build an inclusive academy. It is defined by a commitment to work together to embody, reflect, and respect the complexities of all our parts.
Review the university's first-ever Diversity Strategic Plan, which was released in March 2022, to learn how we will realize our institutional commitment to inclusive excellence.
Diversity Matters
Rutgers considers diversity to be necessary to foster the cultural competencies, resilience, and openness to dialogue that promote the intellectual growth and intergroup understanding that are essential for success in the classroom, the university community, and society at large. Review the topics to right to understand what this means in practice.
