You Belong Here
You're home at UWRF and we’re committed to making you feel that way. We're striving to build an inclusive campus and part of that includes taking steps every day to make change and do better.
Where We Stand
Six core values are at the center of everything we do here at UWRF: student centered, academic excellence, inclusiveness, innovation, global engagement and integrity. For us, inclusiveness means we’re committed to building a community where everyone feels valued, respected and safe. We’re working hard to close the equity gap by dedicating resources as part of our everyday commitment to education, outreach and change.
