Our diversity is what sets us apart and bands us together.

Diversity & Inclusion

The University of New Mexico College of Nursing wants all of our community members to learn and work in an inclusive environment. We are open and respectful of all Lobos. Our diverse backgrounds – your diverse backgrounds – enrich our insights and learning.

We know we have more listening and learning to do. We do not have all of the answers. We are counting on you – our students, faculty and staff. Lead the conversation, join the conversation. Raise awareness and respect for all the different ways of being and thinking.

We Live By Our Values

Academic Excellence. Student success is our success.

Diversity and Inclusion. Each of us defines all of us.

Innovation. Collaborative transformation through nursing knowledge and leadership.

Integrity. Accountable to our communities.

Respect. Fostering communities of understanding, inclusion and compassion.

Our community of learners, researchers and educators is defined by these values. They are expected to be respectful of every Lobo and everyone.

Resources

Lobos understand the strength of our pack. We encourage you to visit the Finding Your Pack website, where you can find campus-wide organizations that support diverse groups within the university community and access tools and resources for addressing some of the issues that may arise as we work to strengthen a culture of inclusion.

Nurture and embrace an environment of diversity, integrity and transparency.
Develop and implement strategies that promote acceptance and inclusion.
Support the well-being of faculty, students and staff.
