+## A commitment and invitation from CMCI
-CMCI strives to be a community whose excellence depends on diversity, equity, and inclusion. We aim to understand and challenge systems of privilege and disadvantage in higher education, such as those based on class, race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, and dis/ability. We seek to reach across social and political divides and to make space for voices historically underrepresented in higher education and marginalized in society. In other words, diversity is not just a future reality for which we try to prepare students. It is a priority we want to put into practice here, now, and together, in order to foster places of learning where all members can thrive. Our question for you is, how are we doing? Please contact the CMCI diversity team (email [Karen Ashcraft](email:Karen.Ashcraft@colorado.edu) or visit the [CMCI Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity Staff](https://www.colorado.edu/cmci/about-college/diversity-equity-and-inclusion/our-team) page):
