We foster a diverse community in which all individuals are welcomed, respected, and supported to achieve their full potential. Race, gender, and ethnicity are commonly cited as facets of diversity; we recognize additional aspects of experience and identity including culture, socioeconomic and educational background, sexual orientation, physical ability, hobbies, and interests. Among diversity’s dividends are the interactions among people with differing perspectives that allow us to reach greater levels of innovation in education, invention, and research.
