Diversity and Inclusion
Diversity & Inclusion Calendar
We consistently strive to enhance a welcoming, inclusive, and respectful community. To heighten awareness around the richness of diversity, we have developed a calendar to remind us of some cultural holidays, religious observances, and celebrations from around the world. Bringing awareness for all employees to these holidays and observances reinforces that Ithaca College is committed to creating inclusive, engaging, and rewarding experiences that promote an environment and culture of excellence.
