Eastern Washington University is committed to building a community that celebrates and promotes the differences among all people. In pursuit of this, we promote a learning environment characterized by inclusiveness, where we value awareness and understanding of each other's differences and similarities and extend this spirit to the populations we serve, striving to treat all with dignity and respect.

We believe that prejudice and oppression are detrimental to human development and that acknowledging diversity enhances the environments we strive to foster and enrich.

As part of our effort, we must commit ourselves to personal growth in our understanding of diversity issues and strive to integrate greater awareness into all aspects of our lives - recognizing that the value in our diversity can enhance our lives with wisdom and experience.

EWU expands opportunities for personal transformation through excellence in learning.

 EWU achieves this mission by:

• fostering excellence in learning through quality academic programs, undergraduate and graduate student research and individual student-faculty interaction. Students extend their learning beyond the classroom through co-curricular programs, life skills development, internship programs, volunteering and service learning.
• creating environments for personal transformation that enrich the lives of individuals, families, communities and society at large.
• expanding opportunity for all students by providing critical access to first generation students, underserved populations, place-bound students, and other students who may not have the opportunity for higher education.
• developing faculty and staff by growing and strengthening an intellectual community and supporting professional development.

Our Vision

EWU envisions a future of professionally, socially and culturally engaged leaders, citizens and communities. 

EWU is a driving force for the culture, economy, workforce and vitality of Washington state. Our graduates think critically and make meaningful contributions to both their career fields and their communities.
