Diversity

Diversity Outreach

Stanford is dedicated to ensuring  that all students experience maximum success and gain the best access to the host of opportunities available to them at the university.

Diversity Works

Diversity Works is a consortium uniting the many Stanford organizations, academic centers, associations and student groups that explore and teach about diversity. Diversity concerns include matters regarding race, ethnicity, gender, international and global issues. The Diversity Works website serves as a portal to these efforts and contains a rich variety of links and information useful for every Stanford student.

Diversity In Action (PDF)

From the Provost’s Diversity Action Council brochure. “Diversity in Action at Stanford”
Stanford people explain:

  • What diversity means to them
  • How they put it to use in their work
  • How it is indispensable in creating true excellence on the Stanford campus

Acts of Intolerance

The Office for Campus Relations established an Acts of Intolerance Protocol for Faculty Staff and Students. It defines “Acts of Intolerance” as the following:

  • Adversely and unfairly targeting an individual or group on the basis of race, color, disability, religion, sexual orientation and national or ethnic origin

The protocol outlines procedures and support for students, faculty and staff if acts of intolerance occur on campus. 

Anyone who is a victim of, or witnesses an act of, intolerance is encouraged to report it to the Vice Provost for Student Affairs at 650-725-1808.  Acts of intolerance that threaten physical harm or violence should be reported immediately to campus police (9-911).

Stanford Policies

Stanford maintains and enforces policies to protect against discrimination. The Stanford nondiscrimination policy, sexual harassment policy and student grievance procedures can be found in the Stanford Bulletin under Nonacademic Regulations.
