Diversity Statement

Northwest Missouri State University Residential Life is a community of people with respect for diversity. We welcome students with and array of differing backgrounds. The opportunity to make friends with people of different backgrounds and gain a better understanding of the world is one of the advantages of a diverse community. In the spirit of celebrating diversity, residents are encouraged to learn about and appreciate people of different races, genders, ages, ethnicities, ablebodiedness, sexual orientations, socioeconomic status, or religious affiliations. Each person has worth and will be treated with dignity and respect. Northwest and the Office of Residential Life practice equal opportunity and will not condone discrimination.
