Diversity Mission
“We have become not a melting pot but a beautiful mosaic. Different people, different beliefs, different yearnings, different hopes, different dreams.”
— Former U. S. President Jimmy Carter
In the spirit of the above quotes, John A. Logan College provides a welcoming atmosphere, a diverse community of faculty, students and staff, and a constantly evolving qualitative curriculum for the enhancement of educational opportunities.
Our diversity pledge thus summarizes our commitment:
John A. Logan College is committed to exemplifying respect for differences and encouraging creative and constructive dialogue at all levels of its operations to promote institutional and academic excellence.
As the world around us continues to change, we are committed to making a positive difference in enhancing cultural understanding and sensitivity that furthers justice, fairness and mutual respect.
We value the contributions of those with varied talents and abilities, beliefs and traditions, actions and behaviors. We value the divergence of thoughts and ideas that make an institution of higher learning the center for the development of human potential.
We are committed to a diverse, inclusive campus through our recruitment, admission and retention of all underrepresented populations.
John A. Logan College is committed to equality of employment opportunity and does not discriminate against applicants or employees based on race, color, national origin, religion, gender, age, disability, veteran status, political affiliation, sexual orientation, creed, or previous convictions that are non-job related.
