Institutional Equity

Believing in the principle of fairness and the importance of community, the Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine affirms its commitment to equity and diversity in all of its programs and activities. Over and above this commitment to equitable treatment, the college pledges itself to continually enhance the climate in which we work and study in order to create the kind of learning environment that will produce culturally sensitive physicians well prepared to provide health care in an increasingly diverse society.

The college is committed to expanding opportunities for populations that have been underrepresented in the medical profession and for individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds, both rural and urban. It is the goal of the university and the college to increase the representation of underrepresented faculty, students and staff in all of its educational programs and activities.
