Frequently asked questions about DEIB

教育公平确保每个学生和教师都能获得成功所需的资源和工具. Equity, as opposed to equality, 意味着提供机会，考虑和解决弱势学生面临的劣势. 

According to Achieving the Dream’s equity statement，代表性不足的学生包括但不限于: 

  • Adult students
  • First-generation, low-income, students of color
  • Formerly and currently incarcerated students 
  • Foster care youth 
  • 边缘化取向，性别认同和双性学生
  • Students with dependents 
  • Students with disabilities 
  • Students with second-language backgrounds
  • Undocumented students
  • Veterans

教育公平很重要，因为它旨在消除来自代表性不足社区的学生在接受高等教育和确定自己的成功之路方面面临的系统性障碍. 

By eliminating structural inequities, 每个学生都能获得成功所需的支持和资源. 因此，学生的身份不再是他们学业成绩的决定性因素. 

According to the National Equity Project, 提供教育公平涉及培养能够通过以下方式改变教育机构的领导者: 

  • 发现和培养每个学生独特的天赋、才能和兴趣. 
  • 消除不公平的做法，审查偏见，创造包容的环境.
  • 确保成功和失败不再由学生的身份决定.

推荐全球十大博彩公司排行榜强调教育机会和职业准备. Through open enrollment, we strive to serve an ethnically, economically, gender and age-diverse profile. 我们有许多团队致力于确保所有学生都能获得所需的资源. Our teams include: 

  • A Career Services Team
  • A Tribal Operations Team
  • Office of Military and Veteran Affairs
  • Student Financial Services 
  • Recognized Student Organizations
  • Office of Educational Equity 

According to the American Council on Education, 教育的多样性很重要，因为这个国家的种族和民族构成在过去20年里发生了巨大的变化. 除了种族和民族之外，社会的多样性还可以由各种其他因素塑造. Among other variables, gender, sexual orientation, 社会经济地位和残疾都是需要考虑的因素.

Diversity has many advantages in education and the workplace, such as increased productivity, creativity and cultural competency. 如果我们想让我们的国家保持经济和社会健康, 所有公民都应该有平等的机会获得能够帮助他们成功的资源.
