Diversity within a learning institution is more than just numbers of people from various backgrounds. It is a total commitment to an open academic and social environment that promotes academic quality, social tolerance and recognition of different points of view.

ACC practices and celebrates diversity by creating a culture that results in a climate of inclusion, where people are involved in education, working together for the common good. Diversity does not end at the walls of the College. It is part of our mission to extend to the community through partnerships with local government, human services and other non-profit agencies with similar intentions. Through various initiatives, ACC promotes an environment of academic excellence and awareness. Students, faculty and staff are encouraged to explore various aspects of diversity through dialogue, the arts and written word along with social gatherings as part of the academic experience.
