Our MissionThe Community & Connection Committee's mission is to actively gauge the Department's climate for members of the department, including those from underrepresented groups, and ensure that all members of the MolBio community feel respected, included, and supported. We serve as liaisons and leaders to promote best practices with regard to diversity, equity, and inclusion; accessibility to professional resources, and department development. All are welcome to apply to serve on this committee.University Statement on Diversity and Non-discriminationPrinceton University is committed to equal opportunity and non-discrimination. To maximize excellence, we seek talent from all segments of American society and the world, and we take steps to ensure everyone at Princeton can thrive while they are here. That is the sole rationale and purpose of our diversity and inclusion programs, all of which are voluntary and open to all, and which comply with federal and state nondiscrimination laws. Princeton does not discriminate on the basis of race, sex, ethnicity, color, national origin, religion, disability, or any other protected characteristic, and Princeton does not provide special benefits or preferential treatment on the basis of a protected characteristic.
