Diversity statement

At ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder Career Services, we firmly believe that our strength and creativity stem from the diversity of our community. We acknowledge and celebrate the myriad of identities and backgrounds that each member brings to our campus—including but not limited to race, ethnicity, gender expression, sexual orientation, disability, religion, socioeconomic status, veteran status, citizenship status and more. Understanding that these identities do not exist in isolation but intersect in complex ways, we are committed to fostering an inclusive environment where every individual feels seen, valued and empowered. We acknowledge the existence and impact of systemic barriers, like biases and power structures, that can influence career paths and professional development. We strive to understand and help navigate these challenges through targeted programs, comprehensive support services and equitable career development opportunities. We pledge to nurture a culture where differences are not only accepted but are recognized as a source of strength and enrichment for our entire community.
