Community & Inclusion

We are a network of non-academic units and initiatives across the University. Our collective mission is to build community and create spaces that encourage new connections; create a welcoming campus culture for all; ensure that BU is recruiting and retaining world-class students, staff, and faculty; and improve our capacity for civil discourse and learning around complex issues and identities such as race, religion, disability, first-generation status, gender, and sexuality.
