Access, Opportunity & Belonging

At K-State, we respect and embrace diversity of thought and wish to create a culture of inclusion in which everyone can thrive. As such, your efforts to promote Access, Opportunity and Belonging should be documented in your syllabus. In addition to familiarizing yourself with the Principles of Community at K-State, you can also use the resources below for ways to celebrate diversity and be inclusive at K-State. #KStateFamily

These resources are intended to assist all of us who teach in all disciplines.
