Diversity, Equity, Inclusion,
and Belonging Committee

Purdue University Global holds itself accountable to foster a culture that promotes diversity and inclusion, offering an environment that is fair, equitable, and accessible for all. To accomplish this goal, the Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging Committee (DEIBC) has established the following purpose:

• To provide a forum to discuss diversity, equity, and inclusion-related issues and to provide recommendations concerning these issues to the Provost.

• Support continuous improvement in providing an experience across the university that is welcoming and supportive for all.

• Encourage intellectual curiosity while preparing all students to thrive in our diverse, global environment.

• Collaborate with school diversity, equity, and inclusion committees striving toward common goals to magnify impact and reduce duplication of effort.

• Provide guidance and review for the diversity, equity, and inclusion website; Recommend improvements to Purdue Global websites to reflect our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion.

• Review the HLC standards related to diversity, inclusion, and equity to identify gaps in processes, procedures, and practices across the university.

• Make recommendations to the Provost regarding diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts.
