ALSO ON OCCA PAGES: Letter from the Director
Dear Members of the UWF Community,
At UWF, we celebrate our campus culture as the values, beliefs, traditions, and identities that both make us unique and bring us together as one community. As an institution of higher learning, we foster an environment that values critical thinking and rigorous debate. As students and scholars, we value decency, civility, freedom, and mutual respect.
At UWF, all students, faculty, and staff have a right to learn and work in an environment free from harassment and discrimination.
At UWF, we value free speech, even when the right to free expression may cause offense. We recognize our freedoms do not include the right to harass others or stifle the dissemination of contrary ideas.
UWF’s Office of Campus Culture and Access is here to promote civility, equal access, and a respectful campus culture. We invite you to visit us in person or online at uwf.edu/occa.
Aurora Osborn
Senior Director
