About Inclusion and Advocacy
The Inclusion & Advocacy programs of the Student Engagement and Leadership Center aspire to be the beacon of equity for The University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP). Through assisting students in seeking commonalities and celebrating differences amongst their community, students will be better prepared to enter the post-collegiate world. Students will gain the skills and resources needed to leave the university with a more defined global perspective.
To accomplish this will require an inclusive campus that allows everyone to use their multicultural talents to make contributions to the academic, research, service, and teaching mission of the University of Texas at El Paso. Our inclusion efforts adhere to a broad and comprehensive definition of:
- Rainbow Miners: gender identity, gender expression, and sexual orientation
- Culture: race/ethnicity, nationality, and citizenship
- Social: socio-economic status, veteran status, first-generation status, religion, age
- Diversity: disabilities, +
and other social identity dimensions that are a critical part of UTEP.
