Staff Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

Columbia University has a long tradition of supporting a diverse and inclusive educational environment—and that begins with our workforce.

We support this effort by ensuring our faculty and staff have opportunities to voice their perspective and by providing resources that can teach us how to make an impact, now and in the future.
