Announcements

The university has heard increased reports in recent days of people from a variety of backgrounds and across the political spectrum feeling targeted or silenced on our campus. Intolerance of others based on their background, identity or views is antithetical to our values.

As the president and provost wrote last week, this is a time to reaffirm our commitment to free expression, diversity and inclusion. The important issues facing our country will benefit from thoughtful discourse of the kind our university community can model.

The 'Find a Resource' tool provides a quick way to find more information about diversity-related resources at Stanford including offices, programs, events, and more. Use the 'resources related to' section to identify the particular type of information you want, and the 'available to' filters to narrow your search by the target audience. 

Dear Stanford family,

This year’s election season has been among the most divisive in memory. For many in our community, the presidential campaign and election have generated great uncertainty, regardless of political preference.

Welcome to Stanford University's Diversity Works website. Explore these pages to find the latest diversity-related Stanford news and research as well as an overview of our community, events, resources, and programs.

A new video produced by the School of Engineering, "The Strength of Stanford Engineering is in the Diversity of our Students," highlights the school's diverse PhD students and commitment to diversity. 

Engineering PhD students, senior leadership, faculty, and staff discuss the resources supporting graduate students, diversity and community.

Following a national search, the role of senior associate vice provost for institutional equity and access will be filled by Lauren Schoenthaler, a member of the Stanford community since 2001. She will be responsible for oversight, implementation and coordination of programs and offices that ensure equity and access across the Stanford community, including Title IX and sexual violence prevention programs.
