ALL OFFICES & SERVICES

Emory & Henry College Welcomes All

We are advocates for social justice and equality.

We value a diverse community of students, staff and faculty and work to provide a campus environment where everyone feels welcomed and supported. We empower students regardless of race, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, religion or ability by actively involving them in inclusive academic and student life programs.

We support every student in finding their voice and in creating a positive impact on this college, on their own community and on the world.


Organizations & Resources

Campus Hate/Bias Response Team

The CHBRT will work in concert with the Office of DEI in providing educational programming and in being a supportive voice for our community in the event of a hate and/or bias incident.

Inclusive Dining

We proudly partner with Sodexo and Spiritual Life to make sure all students’ dietary and religious needs are met. If you are looking to create a diet or dining plan that fits your religious, spiritual or dietary needs, please reach out directly to Sam Walker at swalker@ehc.edu or Dave Brinegar at dbrinegar@ehc.edu for help in curating a dining plan to meet your needs.
