Sample Inclusivity/Diversity Statement
Villanova University supports an inclusive learning environment where diversity and individual differences are respected, appreciated, and recognized as a source of strength and intellectual inquiry. Our different backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives enrich our learning together; they are welcome and valued in this course. We will demonstrate respect and diligence in understanding how other peoples' perspectives, behaviors, and worldviews may be different from our own and how they inform our own understanding.
