Advancing antiracism

Realizing the university’s commitment to leading change and dismantling systemic racism requires the collaborative work of OSU administrators, faculty, staff and students in taking action, consistent with the mission and values of OSU. The Diversity Action Plan outlines initiatives underway within the university to advance this commitment.
