                     UCR Principles of Community

 

"The concept of diversity encompasses acceptance and respect. It means understanding that each individual is unique, and recognizing our individual differences. These can be along the dimensions of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, age, physical abilities, religious beliefs, political beliefs, or other ideologies, It is the exploration of these differences in a safe, positive, and nurturing environment. It is about the understanding each other and moving beyond simple tolerance to the embracing and celebrating the rich dimensions of diversity contained within each individual."

-University of Oregon

 

"We have become not a melting pot but a beautiful mosaic. Different people, different beliefs, different yearnings, different hopes, different dreams."

Jimmy Carter
