At the start of a new century and a new millennium, each university in the State of Arizona provides a supportive and challenging environment in which diversity is valued.
Women are present at all levels in numbers reflecting the national and local communities served.
Each campus fosters a global perspective on education, and sustains an educational, employment, and service environment where the contributions of women are valued and where gender is a legitimate subject for analysis and a resource. The campus provides a safe and open climate where women are encouraged and challenged to develop fully their capabilities and potential, and where the criteria for success and achievement incorporate the unique skills women bring to the campus. Women are equal partners in the leadership decision making of the institution and are recognized and respected for their competence and contributions. The university is committed to the highest quality education for all who seek it and to career preparation unlimited by issues of gender. The university trains, supports, and encourages administrators, faculty, staff, and students to respect women's perspectives and to sustain a positive view of women's status.
