COMMITMENT TO EQUITY AND DIVERSITYWith the goal of
ensuring the equal educational opportunity of all students, Santa
Monica College embraces diversity among students, faculty, staff,
and the communities we serve as an integral part of our history, a
recognition of the complexity of our present state, and a call to
action for a better future. Embracing diversity means that we must
intentionally practice equity and respect toward one another, and
understand that discrimination and prejudices create and sustain
privileges for some while creating and sustaining barriers for
others. In order to embrace diversity, we also acknowledge that
institutional discrimination and implicit bias exist, and that our
goal is to eradicate those vestiges from our system. Our commitment
to diversity requires that we strive to eliminate those barriers to
equity, and that we act deliberately to create a safe and positive
environment where individual and group differences are valued and
leveraged for our growth and understanding as an educational
community. To advance the goals of diversity, equity, inclusion,
and social justice for the success of students and employees, we
must honor that each individual is unique and that our individual
differences contribute to the ability of the college to prepare
students on their educational journeys. This requires that we
develop and implement policies and procedures, encourage individual
and systemic change, continually reflect on our efforts, and hold
ourselves accountable for the results of our efforts in
accomplishing our goals. We are invested as a community in
cultivating and maintaining a climate where equity and mutual
respect are both intrinsic and explicit by valuing individuals and
groups from all backgrounds, demographics, and experiences.
Individual and group differences can include, but are not limited
to the following dimensions: race, ethnicity, national origin or
ancestry, citizenship, immigration status, sex, gender, sexual
orientation, physical or mental disability, medical condition,
genetic information, marital status, registered domestic partner
status, age, religion, creed, military or veteran status,
socioeconomic status, and any other basis protected by federal,
state or local law or ordinance or regulation. We acknowledge that
the concept of inclusion and diversity is ever-evolving, thus we
create space to allow our understanding to grow through the
periodic review of this statement. In service of these goals, Santa
Monica College is committed to fostering an employment environment
that offers equal employment opportunity for all and an educational
environment that ensures the equal educational opportunity of all
students.
