Recommended Syllabus Language

Diversity and Inclusion

The Faculty Senate supports the SGA's resolution on campus inclusivity and passed a motion of support. Those who would like to incorporate a statement of diversity and inclusion in their syllabi may consider employing language contained in a motion passed by the Faculty Senate in 2019:

James Madison University is a community dedicated to diversity and inclusivity.
As faculty, we believe that learning environments should support a diversity of thoughts, perspectives, experiences, and identities. We invite you to share anything with us that might help create a more inclusive and welcoming learning environment.
