As stated in ���Ҵ�ý’s Third-Century Plan (adopted 2018):

“Beyond any responsibilities we might feel to the commonweal, or principles by which we might be motivated, is the simple acknowledgment that an education today is a poor thing if it does not include first hand engagement with a wide range of perspectives and experiences. We simply cannot claim to be a first-tier institution providing a first-tier education to our students if we do not expose them to a rich diversity of perspectives and backgrounds in their educational and social experiences.”

Informed by this statement, Colgate adopted the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Plan in 2019, which has guided a number of programs and initiatives across the University since its adoption.

Beginning in the 2023–24 academic year, a campuswide process of updating that plan began. Led by the Office of Equity and Diversity, discussions were held through campus offices and programs as well as through both campus and board-based governance committees.

What follows in the linked document are the campus initiatives that have emerged from this lengthy and collaborative process.
