UCC COMMITMENT TO MULTICULTURALISM
AND SOCIAL JUSTICE
Our mission is to support the emotional, intellectual,
cultural, and social development of students and the
campus community. We advocate a philosophy of
acceptance, compassion, and support for those we
serve as well as for each other. We aspire to respect
cultural, individual, and role differences as we
continually work toward creating a safe and
affirming climate for individuals of all ages, cultures,
ethnicities, genders, gender identities, languages,
mental & physical abilities, national origins, races,
religions, sexual orientations, sizes, and
socioeconomic statuses.
