Our Mission

The Office of Diversity and Community Engagement’s mission is to promote equitable and inclusive treatment of SLU students, staff, faculty and external stakeholders by providing collaborative opportunities for education, training, and community building for the greater glory of God.

The office’s areas of responsibility include the Cross Cultural Center, the Center for Global Citizenship, a Diversity Speaker Series and the annual MLK Tribute. The office also oversees our fulfillment of the Clock Tower Accords, which commit us to actively strengthen diversity, inclusion and equity on our campuses.

The Office of Diversity and Community Engagement also underwrites travel and registration fees for students and faculty to attend conferences that promote diversity, inclusion and racial justice.

Jonathan Smith, Ph.D., is the vice president for diversity and community engagement at SLU. Among his priorities are providing leadership on the Clock Tower Accords; offering support to the President's Diversity Council; reaching out across campus to define University diversity goals; and developing strategies and assessment plans that are specific to diversity and inclusion. The Cross Cultural Center (CCC) and Center for Global Citizenship (CGC) also fall under his leadership.
