Enriching the Educational Experience
Like most higher education institutions in the United States, the University of Utah recognizes that diverse faculty, student and staff populations benefit and enrich the educational experiences of the entire campus and greater community. To this end, the Office of the Associate Vice President for Diversity is committed to removing barriers that have been traditionally encountered by individuals from underrepresented groups; strives to recruit students, faculty and staff who will further enrich our campus diversity; and makes every attempt to support their academic, professional and personal success while they are here. The presence and success of these students, faculty and staff enhances the educational experience of everyone.
