Our Office

At Anna Maria, we aim to create and maintain a campus climate based on respect, where our differences are acknowledged, not neglected, and joined with our commonalities – as this is essential for building and maintaining an engaged college. Through our dialogues and programs we promote interpersonal development, intergroup understanding, cultural empathy and humility, and critical thinking skills to prepare our students to meet the challenges of a complex and evolving society.
