UW Honors' Commitment to Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
Feb 4, 2017
We in UW Honors are aware that the recent executive order concerning immigration has raised many concerns in our community and beyond. During this time of rapid change and turbulence in our country, we are guided by our mission and our commitments to diversity, equity and inclusion, and we continue to welcome students regardless of their immigration status or country of origin.
We would like to share this compilation of additional support and resources from the UW and elsewhere:
- UW President Ana Mari Cauce has issued a statement: "Supporting our international scholars and students"
- The UW Faculty senate, in keeping with their goal of inclusivity, has begun an online listing of events and resources for the community
- Office of Global Affairs has gathered resources for students and faculty
- International Student Services provides updates for UW's international student population, including this announcement specific to the Jan 27 Executive Order
- Leadership without Borders remains dedicated to working with and for undocumented students
- American Immigration Lawyers Association has generated a resource page that provides analysis and assistance for the general public
