The Diversity Advocates

The University at Buffalo is home to students from over 100 countries, representing a diversity of gender, race, ethnicity, age, religion, sexual orientation, values and perspectives (to name a few). The University at Buffalo's greatest asset is the diversity of the student body. Together we comprise the University at Buffalo CommUNITY.

Students highly value the diversity at UB. To engage students as peer advocate and educators, the IDC provides an exciting leadership opportunity, through the Diversity Advocate 3 credit-hour course.

Diversity Advocates are undergraduate peer educators who promote diversity and social justice, increase awareness and knowledge of diversity-related issues; create dialogue that explores the definition and perception of diversity and work to build a University commUNITY. Diversity Advocates conduct educational workshops with UB101 classes, student clubs and organizations and residence halls to promote the awareness, acceptance and necessity for diversity education.

The Diversity Advocates celebrate the diversity at UB. We invite you to join our efforts and become a Diversity Advocate!
