The Information School believes that diversity, in its many forms, contributes to the intellectual and social enrichment of the school. We welcome applicants who have varied cultural, educational and socioeconomic backgrounds.

We create an environment that fosters appreciation, mutual respect and engagement among and between members of the iSchool, UW community and beyond, with special attention to the needs of vulnerable populations and minoritized and marginalized groups.

We envision a university in which all students, faculty and staff participate fully and meaningfully in campus life without being subjected to discrimination, bias or microaggressions. We do not condone any expressions of racism, sexism, homophobia or transphobia, or any other instances of bias and discrimination against marginalized individuals or groups.
