The mission of Terry College's Diversity Relations is to:

1. Identify opportunities for the College to increase the diversity of its students, faculty and staff
2. Propose and implement action plans that increase diversity
3. Monitor the College's performance in achieving its short-term and long-term goals related to diversity

The Terry College recognizes that diversity often has different meanings to different people, so our view of diversity encompasses broad individual perspectives that include — but are not limited to — race/ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexual orientation, education, work experiences, religion, and career aspirations.
