Integrity

A search process is an opportunity for an employer to evaluate a candidate and for a candidate to evaluate a potential employer. All employment candidates deserve to be evaluated as fairly and objectively as possible. In our searches, we endeavor to evaluate candidates on the basis of their applications and interview performance. We believe in representing ourselves and our organization with candor and strive to deliver clear and complete information candidates need to make their decisions.

Diversity

We affirm the importance of diversity as an important educational and innovative resource in our workforce. To this end, we strive to create search committees and assemble candidate pools that reflect varied viewpoints, perspectives, and experiences. The Division of Student Affairs and Housing & Residence Life foster an inclusive, welcoming, collaborative work environment and is committed to the recruitment and retention of a diverse workforce.
