DEI Division

One of the guiding priorities from the University of Arkansas’ strategic plan is to enrich campus diversity and inclusion. To help the U of A create and sustain a diverse, inclusive environment, the Division of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion offers support for initiatives, policies and programming designed to impact the overall culture at the university. Our office provides students, faculty, staff and regional communities across Arkansas with access to the necessary resources, information and training to make this happen. DEI hosts many multicultural events to support student voice and empower them to be confident in their individuality.
