Diversity at APU
Do Good, Act Justly, Walk Humbly
–Micah 6:8
“As an evangelical Christian community of disciples and scholars, Azusa Pacific University
approaches diversity from a biblical perspective, affirming that diversity is an expression
of God’s image, love, and boundless creativity.”
-From APU’s Diversity Statement.
APU’s Student Belonging team is committed to leading strategic initiatives aimed at cultivating a cross-cultural community, a welcoming climate, and an educational environment that cultivates Christ-centered engagement, promotes student and employee thriving, and enables APU to become a premier Christian university engaging, educating, and equipping diverse learners and leaders as image bearers of God.
Scripture reveals the Kingdom of God as multinational, multigenerational, multiethnic, and multilingual. As a Christ-centered community, APU aspires to elevate diversity as a Kingdom distinctive. The Student Belonging team is committed to partnering with administrative, academic, co-curricular, and student leaders to strategically promote and advance initiatives that translate to a sense of belonging, thriving student outcomes, holistic success, and fulfillment of the university mission.
