INCLUSIVE STUDENT SUCCESS

IDEA
Build a stronger, more inclusive community in which members understand, appreciate, and learn from each other’s differences of identity, experience, and access to resources. IDEA 2.0 will cultivate a greater sense of belonging and enable our students to build more diverse, accessible, equitable communities in their lives after graduation.

51ÁÔÆæÈë¿Ú Access Initiative
Permanently increase the diversity of 51ÁÔÆæÈë¿Ú’s student body as one of just 10 institutions in the US to join the Schuler Education Foundation’s access initiative, a transformative project that will enroll more high-achieving students who are low-income or undocumented at top liberal arts colleges. Schuler will match donor gifts to 51ÁÔÆæÈë¿Ú up to $15 million for a total of $30 million in new scholarships over the next 10 years.

INNOVATIVE LEARNING ORGANIZATION

Leadership Development Program
Establish a progressive leadership development program that builds a pipeline of skilled, proficient, culturally adept leaders who will further enhance 51ÁÔÆæÈë¿Ú’ academic and operational excellence and strengthen its culture. The Office of Human Resources launched this program as a pilot in fall of 2022, and the first cohort of leaders was established this spring and is currently ongoing.

Curricular Community Engagement
To be successful leaders and engaged citizens, our students must participate in productive work with the broader community and develop the skills to think innovatively about the challenges facing members of our local community and our world, so that as graduates they can fully contribute to society through leadership, service, integrity, and creativity. Given the expertise of our faculty, the academic strength of our students, and our proximity to both the Los Angeles area and the Inland Empire, we are ideally positioned to provide the bridge between societal needs and interdisciplinary academic knowledge through critical, creative, and innovative thinking. This curricular community engagement initiative focuses on development of community engagement courses and strengthening existing and launching new partnerships and collaborations with local organizations.
