Equity, Diversity and Inclusion on Campus

Diversity Counts on Our Campuses.

October 24, 2022

RRC Polytech recently launched the Diversity Self-Identification Survey, where all employees and students are invited to voluntarily self-declare as part of one or more of the following equity groups:

  • Women
  • Indigenous peoples
  • People with disabilities
  • Racialized persons
  • Persons of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community

Participation in the survey will help give the College an accurate picture of who is on our campuses, supporting future inclusive initiatives.

See why RRC Polytech employees and students are self-identifying, and share your story on social media by using the hashtag #CountMeINcluded.

Program Coordinator, Graphic Design

I’m self-identifying because diversity builds creativity. The more we can encourage a wide variety of voices to share their ideas, the more innovative and inclusive we become. 

Jose Manuel Castellon Alvarez
Instructor, Applied Computer Education

I’m self-identifying as proud Latino who learned the importance of speaking up. I want to be an agent of change, and by sharing my story, I want to encourage visible minorities to always be proud of who they are. We need to understand that microaggressions affect our performance. By educating ourselves on being inclusive and respectful, we will create a more productive and welcoming environment.

Make your voice heard and representation know. Complete the Diversity Self-Identification Survey today.
