On Campus Resources

Canisius has a number of excellent resources on campus to help support diversity and inclusion on campus including your efforts in the day-to-day experiences of your classroom.

Statement on Diversity and Inclusion at Canisius

Consistent with our Catholic Jesuit mission and identity, we stand in solidarity with and advocate for everyone of all abilities, identities, life experiences, and perspectives.

As a campus located in a diverse Buffalo community, we are committed to:

  • Creating a culture of acceptance, awareness, learning, respect, and understanding inside and outside of the classroom

  • Pursuing academic excellence through a curriculum of diverse ideas and vibrant interpersonal classroom experiences that challenge individuals to grow

  • Promoting a safe and welcoming experience that encourages questioning and discussion

  • Advancing equity by removing institutional barriers to success for all members of the community

  • Developing lifelong learners who contribute to an increasingly diverse and global society
