Diversity
Building an inclusive community requires effort and commitment. The UGA Community website highlights our campus-wide commitment to diversity and inclusion through the stories of individuals who make UGA a welcoming place for all.
Experience our community. Contribute to our story. Do amazing things. Be you.
The University of Georgia is the flagship institution of higher education in the state of Georgia. It has a duty to prepare its students to function effectively, to be leaders and to be citizens of the state, region and nation. This duty includes an obligation to expose students to a robust exchange of ideas within a student body representing the greatest possible variety of backgrounds. In order to provide a diverse learning environment, the University adopted policies and practices to increase diversity among its entering students.
The Office of Institutional Diversity (OID) leads the university in fulfilling its commitment to be a diverse campus that is enriched and informed by the personal, cultural and intellectual differences of its students, faculty, staff and visitors. As UGA grows more diverse, creating a welcoming climate of respect and inclusiveness for all is more important than ever.
