Diversity
Celebrating the richness of human diversity is at the heart of Adler
School's commitment to social responsibility and is reflected in the content of
our curricula and makeup of our faculty and staff, which attracts students the
world over. Apparent differences in race, ethnicity, language, religion, values,
beliefs, disabilities, class, sexuality, gender, and age are implicit. All are woven
into the fabric of excellence at Adler School. At every level of our organization,
we invite and embrace diversity of faculty, staff, students, sponsors, trustees,
vendors, and our wide range of business partners. The curricula of all
programs provide the opportunity for students to acquire knowledge, skills,
and values related to individual and group diversity. Field placements for
clinical training are available in areas where the clientele is partly or primarily
from traditionally underserved groups.
Recruitment and retention of a diverse student body is important to
prepare students to enter a world in which the understanding of individual and
cultural diversity is essential for peace and progress. Student organizations
provide support and fellowship for members of diverse and marginalized
groups. Our commitment to honoring diversity is not only a concept, it
is practiced.
