Falcon Athletics is partnering with the Office of Diversity and Inclusion to craft a refreshed and updated inclusion statement specifically for our athletic programs. We recognize the importance of such a statement and fully endorse the existing Cedar Crest College Diversity Statement:
Founded under the mission to expand women’s access to higher-education, Cedar Crest College values difference in a diverse, inclusive, and equitable learning environment. The College is committed to educational excellence, leadership, and civic engagement in a pluralistic society. We thus embrace an inclusive community that brings together students, faculty, and staff of different racial and multi-racial, ethnic and multi-ethnic, gender and sexually diverse, religious and nonreligious, economic, and national identities and ages. Our educational mission includes students who have been historically underrepresented in higher education, such as students of color, first-generation college students, international students, students of varying ability or disability, and other identities.
