As a land-grant institution, Texas A&M University has both the privilege and responsibility to extend broad-based education and to serve the public good. Thus, we commit to actively serving as a resource for the community we call home. The goal of our community engagement initiative is to create meaningful and sustained university-community partnerships focused on working collaboratively to enhance the climate for diversity. This initiative seeks to advance our goal of inclusion by drawing faculty, students, staff, and community members into collaborative and mutually beneficial interactions and conversations that enrich the lives of both Texas A&M University and the community. Our office hosts annual university-community forums and establishes project teams to address strategic issues in an effort to ensure that the University and the Bryan/College Station communities are seen as welcoming, supportive, and inclusive environments for all.
