Dedman College Diversity & Inclusion Team

We work to make all students enjoy a living and learning environment in which they can thrive and prepare for the brightest futures.

Dedman College is committed to advancing the University Strategic Plan’s goals regarding diversity, the Black University Forum Action Plan, and University Moving Forward Together Plan in the mission to help our campus become a more welcoming, equitable, and inclusive environment for all its members. 

Our work is centered on the following values:
