Just Community is a major initiative to create cohesiveness, appreciation for diversity and a sense of pride among students, faculty and employees at the University of Cincinnati. Just Community can be described as an ideal, a philosophy or a state of mind. We invite you to join us in creating and promoting the legacy of Just Community.
Just Community
The University Diversity Council serves as the university-level governance committee charged with building institution-wide capacity to meet the needs of an increasingly diverse campus that embraces diversity as one of our core values, infusing every aspect of campus life and purpose and every measure of success This initiative seeks to engage the broader university audience in defining and developing practices that support an inclusive environment.
The 2012-2013 Just Community brochure has been distributed to all incoming students. Join the Journey to community core values!
