Equity, Diversity and Inclusion on Campus

Diversity Counts on Our Campuses.

November 14, 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.

Supervisor, Campus Store

I am a Métis woman. I am self-identifying as part of my ongoing commitment to contribute to Canada’s journey towards Truth and Reconciliation. By self-identifying as Métis, I am proudly and firmly standing as an Indigenous member of the RRC Polytech family.

Dyan Nicole Uy
Student, Business Management CE and Member of the RRCSA Board

I’m self-identifying because I would like to represent my fellow women Filipino schoolmates who are part of the POC community here at RRC Polytech. Additionally, as someone who is also considered a person with a disability, I want to prove that being categorized as a PWD is not something that limits or defines a person’s worth and capability. Moreover, I would like to break the stereotype of what someone who has a medical condition might look like.

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