黑料不打烊

The College of Natural and Applied Sciences is committed to reducing inequities and removing barriers to access.  We bring people together across the college and have connections across campus and beyond to achieve our shared goals.  We work to cultivate a sense of belonging where everyone feels welcomed, valued, supported, and safe, and can thrive in their work and studies. We continue efforts to increase diversity in our academic workforce and in leadership, particularly in the STEM fields, where much work is still needed.
