Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

The Wonder of Why

At LSA, we wonder. We wonder why we are here. We ask how the universe works, and how we organize societies. We all wonder—but the great professors and students use curiosity as a catalyst to find answers to the biggest questions. Wonder begins with a simple “why” and leads to discovery that advances science and society while shaping our world for the better.

Our Commitment

We are committed to making LSA an inclusive, equitable, and collaborative space to learn, teach, work, discover, and thrive together. Enhancing and embracing our differences is essential to achieving our shared goals of producing groundbreaking research, providing a world-class liberal arts education, and making a positive impact on our diverse society.

We All Wonder

Everyone wonders. While the things we're curious about and the experiences and backgrounds we have as individuals differ, we all share in imagining a better future. Diversity is essential to producing groundbreaking research and providing a world-class liberal arts education, and we are committed to making LSA an inclusive, equitable, and collaborative space to learn, teach, work, and discover.
