Diversity & Inclusion

Diversity + Inclusion + Engagement = Inclusive Excellence

At the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, diversity and inclusion are integral to the achievement of excellence. It is our belief that the incorporation of diversity and inclusion can enhance the university's ability to accomplish our academic mission. Through the implementation of Inclusive Excellence, UW-La Crosse pledges to continue to commit human and financial resources that support an inclusive campus that attracts and retains diverse students, faculty and staff and promotes a dynamic learning environment vital for academic excellence and global citizenship.

Studies show:
Inclusive excellence makes everyone smarter and happier!

Solving the complex problems of the modern world works better when we bring a broad range of experiences, perceptions, skills, and knowledge to bear. When we work together across differences with respect for one another and focus on finding the best solution, our solutions are more likely to work. That's why UWL has adopted Inclusive Excellence.
