Inclusion & Belonging

The Office of Inclusion & Belonging strives to provide students with an inclusive community by supporting students of color; members of our LGBTQ+ community (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer/Questioning with the “+” (plus) representing all other gender identities and sexual orientations); international students; students of all religious, secular, and/or spiritual identities; and allies to persons within those communities. The Office encourages personal, social, and academic growth, exemplary citizenship, and retention of students from underrepresented identities at Keuka College. Areas of focus include:

Intercultural Engagement

Through intercultural engagement, the Office of Inclusion & Belonging promotes education about culture and opportunities to interact across cultures. 

Interfaith Engagement

Through interfaith engagement, the Office of Inclusion & Belonging fosters conversations and opportunities that build bridges of understanding between different worldviews, when two or more people with differing religious, secular, and/or spiritual identities, engage with one another. 

International Support

In collaboration with the Office of Global Affairs, the Office of Inclusion & Belonging supports international students who choose Keuka College as a place to pursue their higher education degree, by helping them to navigate the campus and to learn about the greater Rochester area.
