Vanderbilt’s success as an institution is inextricably linked to our ability to nurture a university community that is inclusive and respectful of differences. As we strive to uphold the highest standards for scholarly research, teaching and service to the community and society at large, we must also value most highly diversity of perspective, equality, compassion and excellence in all endeavors.
