Equity and Inclusion at Loyola

At the heart of Loyola’s mission as a Jesuit institution is making sure that all of our students, staff, faculty, and guests feel welcome, inspired, and supported. We work to achieve this every day across the university because that‘s what it means to us to be people with and for others. We strive to foster a spirit of mutual recognition and support, to be a community where all people can thrive.

We’re proud of our students, who possess many different backgrounds, beliefs, circumstances, talents, and abilities. We do our best to ensure that all students have the resources they need to thrive on our campus. Learn more about our vast array of resources that support diversity and inclusion, and how you can join our efforts. Come see us in Bobet 110!

Who we are

Our community prides itself on its fascinating, offbeat, friendly, and diverse mix of individuals. This sets the stage for you to define who you want to be—there’s no “in crowd” here. The many people you’ll meet from different backgrounds and perspectives will enhance your Loyola experience and deepen your personal journey. You’ll learn about the world, and yourself, in ways you could never imagine.
