Commitment
to Inclusive Excellence: WSU recognizes that our individual
differences can deepen our understanding of one another and the world around
us, rather than divide us. In this class, people of all ethnicities, genders,
religions, ages, sexual orientations, disabilities, socioeconomic backgrounds,
regions, and nationalities are strongly encouraged to share their rich array of
perspectives and experiences. If you
feel your differences may in some way isolate you from WSU’s community or if
you have a need of any specific accommodations, please speak with the
instructor early in the semester about your concerns and what we can do
together to help you become an active and engaged member of our class and
community.
