°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±app is committed to cultivating, nurturing, and growing a student body that resembles the diversity of California, Oregon and beyond.

Health Sciences education in general has struggled with overcoming chronic underrepresentation, inequity, and increasing the access and success of students from diverse communities. Through focusing on diversity, equity, inclusion, anti-racism (the very core of humanism) we attract more students and faculty members from underrepresented groups and prepare our students to care for underserved populations.

°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±app intentionally seeks to educate and grow the diversity of the workforce in the health professions. These efforts will result in generational impact by systematically reducing health inequity in our most underserved communities.

Greetings!

°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±app is creating an environment where all feel like they are welcome and fit into the culture of humanism, equity, diversity, inclusion, and anti-racism. As a private educational institution in the health sciences, we have an immense responsibility to create the conditions, provide the opportunities, to facilitate inquiry into the truth of the multiple identities that every generation brings to the campus, and practice compassion in the service of health equity for all.

Welcome to °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±app!

Suresh Appavoo, EdD (he, him, his)
Vice President for Humanism, Equity, and Anti-Racism

At °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±app, we are at the forefront of being concerned with what our students learn, and we also prepare them to discover who they are, who they can become, and how they can engage in collective, and transformative action with people to fundamentally and positively affect the health futures for every generation.

This preparation is how inclusive excellence for health equity is operationalized, and as such, transforms institutionally shared vision into institutionally shared actions that actualize the lived educational experience equitably for all students.
