Commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
We take pride in creating a welcoming environment for our diverse student body. By recognizing the importance of diversity in our student body, and creating an atmosphere which values equity and inclusion, our goal is to contribute to a workforce that is representative of the patients and communities that it serves. We believe that everyone plays a role in uncovering and eliminating health disparities and becoming more knowledgeable about different cultures and communities.
