We recognize that Rose-Hulman is part of a mutually dependent, multicultural community. As an institution devoted to excellence in education, we acknowledge our responsibility to teach students the skills they need to excel in their chosen field, including the ability to interact with people of diverse backgrounds and viewpoints. Our goal is to help our students become global leaders. To achieve this goal, we will:

• Encourage every individual to respect the inherent dignity of others.
• Strive to broaden understanding of each individual's unique contribution to society.
• Promote the core value of lifelong learning and development of skills to enhance professional and personal growth in order to generate the skills necessary for each individual, regardless of their role, to attain individual excellence in their activities on campus and beyond.
• Engage the Institute community in both broad and specific capacity building development to strengthen professional commitments to well-being initiatives that center psychological safety, comprehensive cross-cultural teambuilding and leadership strategies, and trauma-informed engagement practices.
• Highlight and strengthen individual awareness of interpersonal communication and intergroup dialogue for the purpose of creating collaborative innovation using strategies that amplify personal relationship building skills and intercultural awareness.
• Refine institutional values, traditions, policies, practices, and procedures that create a community culture of belonging in which all members and visitors feel accepted as their whole authentic self.
