God’s Design for Diversity, Community & Inclusion
Celebrating the diversity of God’s Kingdom through uncommon unity
All people are created by God and bear His image.
That’s the first line of the Anderson University Office of Diversity, Community & Inclusion’s (AU DC&I) mission statement. It’s what we believe. It’s the culture we foster. It represents who we are.
Join us in making Anderson University a place where we truly—and biblically—reflect God’s design for humanity among the members of our faculty, staff, and students.

Scholarships
Anderson University is committed to making college more affordable to all students. That’s why the Office of Diversity, Community & Inclusion awards competitive scholarships to students. It’s just one way we are fostering a student body that accurately reflects the diversity of God’s Kingdom.
I AM Mentoring
The mission of I AM is to develop and empower the individual, while strengthening our understanding of personal identities and identities of others, in order to create a sense of community belonging, academic accomplishment, and personal self-worth within an inclusive campus culture.
Call Me MISTER
The Call Me MiSTER program recruits African-American men to become elementary school teachers and become role models. These men have heeded the call to serve God in public schools to have a positive impact on children.
