RIDER UNIVERSITY EMBRACES THE CONCEPT OF VALUING THE DIVERSITY OF ALL OUR STUDENTS, STAFF & FACULTY

The Multicultural Center, Student Affairs, Academic Affairs, Residence Life, Campus Activities, Human Resources, Security and the Westminster Campus realize that, in order for our community to flourish we need to commit ourselves to the ideals expressed in the statement of EXPECTATIONS FOR THE RIDER COMMUNITY

'Pivotal to Rider's mission is the need to embrace ·and value the diversity of its members. Acknowledging the uniqueness of each individual, we seek to cultivate an environment that encourages freedom of expression. Because the University is a community where inquiry is nurtured and theories tested, every individual must feel safe to express ideas that differ from those held by other members of the community. However, all persons who aspire to be part of our campus community must accept the responsibility to demonstrate civility and respect for the dignity of others. Recognizing that the proper balance between freedom of expression and respect for others is not always apparent or easy to achieve, we must continually strive to challenge ourselves and each other in an atmosphere of mutual concern, good will and respect. Therefore, expressions or actions that disparage an individual's or group's ethnicity, gender, religion, sexual orientation, mari­ tal status, age or disability are contrary to the mission of Rider University.'

We invite open and lively discussion about these expectations as we seek to apply them daily here at Rider. Please contact the Multicultural Center, Human Resources or the Dean of Students Office for further information or with comments. The
