Primary Function of Organizational Unit

The Office for Institutional Equity and Diversity (OIED) is committed to fostering an inclusive, accessible, and diverse intellectual and cultural campus experience related to the mission of North Carolina State University (NC State). The OIED facilitates efforts to ensure equity and opportunity, increases awareness of diversity issues through education, and strengthens relationships across diverse groups. Through these efforts, the OIED promotes cultural competence development, thereby fostering a welcoming and respectful campus. By providing guidance, programming, and outreach to constituent groups and the community, and by adhering to accountability and compliance standards, the OIED prepares NC State students, faculty, and staff for local, state, national, and global collaboration.

Campus Community Centers is a unit within the Office for Institutional Equity and Diversity.

Together, the centers work to foster a stronger sense of community on campus; empower, support and advocate for underrepresented and marginalized students; educate the campus on social justice issues and to help students successfully transition to college, persist and graduate at higher rates.

The mission of the Women’s Center is to build and create a community of authentic and engaged allies and leaders to pursue gender equity and social justice; enhancing the campus climate through education, advocacy, support, and leadership development. In order to fulfill its mission, the Women’s Center works to create a “just” community for critical reflection and discourse; provides opportunities for counter storytelling and authentic learning; leads intentional programming and workshops for the campus community; provides support, resources and advocacy; creates culture change around interpersonal violence; serves as a connection for the campus and external community; engages students in social justice action both locally and globally; and works to transform systems by advising administrators and the campus community to inform policy.
