Seattle University and the Albers School of Business and Economics are committed to advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion. Seattle University was awarded an ADVANCE program Institutional Transformation grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) in 2016 to initiate structural change that advances equity among the university’s faculty. Integral to the university’s five-year strategic plan, the Office of Diversity and Inclusion (ODI) aims to promote inclusive excellence in the university’s teaching, research, and service dimensions. Faculty and staff in the Albers School signed a statement of anti-racism in 2020 and have since begun an Anti-Racist Curriculum Series (ARCS) facilitated by faculty with DEI expertise to explore how business programs can contribute to anti-racist education.
