Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Statement
The Kernodle Center for Civic Life strives to be a model of inclusion across Elon’s campus. We believe that a genuine appreciation of diversity and intentional inclusion are essential to the fulfillment of our mission. We are deeply committed to advancing a community of engagement where students, faculty, staff, community members, and other stakeholders can interact with each other across differences in political beliefs, socioeconomic status, religious backgrounds, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, ability level, race, ethnicity, or nationality. We will create and cultivate an environment where authentic dialogue is valued, differences are welcomed, and engaged community stakeholders can interact.
