The Division of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) envisions a vibrant campus rich in cultures, spiritualities, identities, and lived experiences. We advance programs and initiatives that promote a sense of belonging, build more equitable campus systems, and celebrate diversity.

The Vice Provost for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion leads units that provide university-wide programs and educational opportunities that build inclusivity in higher education. The Vice Provost reports to the Provost and advises senior leadership on essential policies, programs, and strategies to achieve inclusive excellence and to ensure that all who are in and part of the university community receive the support necessary to thrive.
