Our Diversity
Lucy Cross Center Open HouseSafe ZoneAmerican Indian Education Week

At Rollins, we value and embrace multiculturalism, diversity and inclusion in our pursuit of academic excellence, global citizenship, and responsible leadership. We have an active Diversity Council and several other diversity related organizations that promote multicultural awareness and inclusiveness, and engage in educational programming, community building, and advocacy.

At Rollins, we view the following principles as fundamental elements of our mission:

  • We affirm the value of human diversity because it enriches our intellectual lives and our community.

  • We celebrate the open exchange of ideas within a climate of civility and mutual respect.

  • We reject all forms of prejudice and discrimination, including those based on race, national origin, ethnicity, class, gender, age, ability, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, and veteran status.

  • We take individual and collective responsibility for helping to eliminate bias and discrimination and for increasing our own understanding of these issues throughout the Rollins community.

The Diversity Advisory Council seeks to foster and to model a campus environment that is welcoming, safe, and inclusive to all of our administrators, faculty, staff, and students.  We view differences (e.g. nationality, race, gender, age, sexual orientation, socioeconomic class, physical ability, learning styles, perspectives, etc.) not as obstacles to be overcome but as rich opportunities for understanding, learning, and growth.
