DEI Efforts Across Rutgers and RBHS
Embracing a culture of inclusive excellence means an institution commits to adopting a means for the cohesive, coherent, and collaborative integration of diversity and inclusion into the institutional pursuit of excellence.
This is part of Rutgers School of Nursing’s own commitment, as well as the commitment of the greater Rutgers University and Rutgers Biomedical and Health Sciences (RBHS) division, of which Rutgers Nursing is both a part and a partner.
Learn more about the Rutgers University President Jonathan Holloway’s priorities, as well as the RBHS Diversity Strategic Planning Committee and School of Nursing’s involvement in this effort.
Rutgers can be a leader on the national stage by redefining how and where we find excellence. This work is born and bred out of a commitment to diversity in all of its forms.
Establishing this office (SVP Equity)…, is meant to send a clear signal of our institutional values and investments, just as it is our intention to hold ourselves accountable as we build a better university.”
