College Statement on Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion

In the College of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies, we extend our respect and commit to honouring
our collective diversities, including but not limited to ethnicity, culture, national origin, gender identity,
gender expression, sexual orientation, age, ability, disability, health, socio-economic status, class, and
religion. We stand witness to the harms and collective impacts of colonization toward the Indigenous
peoples of Turtle Island and from across the globe, and we pay homage to their ways of knowing, their
deep wisdoms, and understandings of Mother Earth.
