Communicate in a direct, timely, and respectful manner realizing what you do affects others.

Inclusiveness

Intentionally connect with all stakeholders to instill a sense of acceptance and belonging.
Provide a culturally sensitive environment that includes relevant teaching strategies, individual accommodations, looking beyond assumptions, and participation in collaborative discussions for all.
