Beloit College strongly reaffirms its commitment to diversity in word and action, policies and practices.  The College repudiates discrimination or marginalization in any form as an unacceptable trespass upon the values of individual merit, human dignity and mutual respect.  We will strive to create a campus community that is diverse with regard to race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, class, and national origin.  We will require all individuals to assume responsibility for actively understanding and implementing their roles in creating such a community.
