Information Technology's Commitment to Inclusive Excellence
Information Technology stands with our diverse campus community. It is a community that is indicative of our rich cultural landscape. From Orange County residents to our international students, each member of this community is what makes Cal State Fullerton the renowned institution that it is.
IT is dedicated to Inclusive Excellence. We have set forth goals, which are constantly monitored and evaluated, to improve our practices in managing our organization. We hope this page helps showcase some of the strides we have taken to uphold the tenants of Inclusive Excellence.
Our individual experiences and stories build the structure that is academic and personal excellence. By talking with, listening to, and sharing stories, we can better understand the world around us. Together as a community, we use this knowledge to spur innovation, transformation, and create a better tomorrow.
