At Normandale, we understand that authenticity in Equity and Inclusion starts with being aware of who we are, where we come from, and our own biases and privileges.
We are committed to the principle that all individuals are to be treated with equality and dignity without discrimination regardless of race, color, national or ethnic origin, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, age, economic, and/or marital status. The college will work diligently to make sure all our dealings with each other are marked by decency, empathy and civility.
The College resolutely condemns conduct and expressions of bigotry, hatred, prejudice or disrespect. Such behavior will be regarded as a violation of the standards of conduct required of any person associated with this College.
As a center of teaching and learning, the College prides itself on being a community in which free and open discussion takes place. We expect and foster a culturally responsive exchange of differing values and ideas.
We do this work through our bold vision to close all equity gaps by 2025.
After a competitive application process, President Joyce C. Ester appointed eight Equity Fellows to help Normandale make our ambitious Equity 2025 goals a reality.
Normandale is thrilled to welcome two new employees who will play key roles in helping achieve our Equity 2025 vision as members of the newly formed Strategic Initiatives Group.
Sirtify's mission is to recruit and support Black, African American, and African men into Education pathways.
