Office of Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging
The Office for Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging at the Faculty of Arts and Sciences (FAS ODIB) develops and supports evidence-based strategies and programs to advance and support equity, diversity, inclusion, and belonging (EDIB) for all members (students, faculty, staff, and researchers) of the FAS community. At the root of this work is ensuring that all members of the FAS community feel welcome, included, and supported and that EDIB is established as a core, lived value of the FAS.
