Building a Community in Diversity at McDonough

At McDonough, we are committed to understanding the diverse perspectives and experiences of our faculty, staff, students, and alumni; transparency in our work; and thoughtfully enacting meaningful change within our community and throughout the world.

Faculty & Staff

We seek to empower faculty and staff with resources dedicated to fostering our sense of community in diversity. Our university provides tools and training to cultivate an inclusive environment, ensuring that every member contributes to a campus culture that values and respects diverse perspectives.

Ongoing Initiatives

Georgetown McDonough facilitates a number of initiatives aimed at fostering a community in diversity within the school, across the university, and in the greater D.C. region.

“It’s my hope and belief that our students, faculty, staff, and alumni will lead the way in creating a fairer world. Our community will be women and men for others. We will be allies to one another. We will set an example. We won’t tolerate intolerance. We will speak up against injustice. We will be the best in the world and the best for the world.”
