The College of Pharmacy is committed to fostering a welcoming culture. We seek to facilitate learning environments in which students, faculty, staff, colleagues, and patients are respected, valued, and recognized as having unique experiences and perspectives. We do this not only because it creates an environment in our College where people can contribute their best work, but also because we recognize that it prepares our students to be effective healthcare providers.
