The equity principles that follow are framed with the premise that institutions of higher education are responsible for student learning, creating equitable systems to ensure all students achieve success, with particular attention to systematically excluded students. The principles draw from existing equity research and best practices, but are not meant to be exhaustive, and were created to provide a guidepost for institutions who are committed to pursuing equitable outcomes for all students. To be clear, ensuring equity requires that we disavow the one-size-fits-all approach and that we intentionally consider institutional context and capacity for engaging in equity-minded work.
