Diversity

Differences: The essence of a rich and rewarding human experience.

Ideally, at Bentley University, diversity is everyone’s responsibility. Fulfilling our mission as an institution depends on all of us becoming more competent in dealing with people who seem different from us. Formal responsibility for coordinating university-wide diversity-related activities at Bentley is located in the Office of the President’s Special Assistant. Many other departments, centers, offices, programs and organizations at Bentley contribute to improving the diversity climate through varied and persistent efforts. This site contains information about and links to many of those specific places at Bentley where diversity work is being done.

"Bentley promotes international student activities. This is great, especially in the beginning when you're just getting to know people. You go to activities and meetings, get to know people and start making friendships. The international office is always there to help you with any issues."
