We are committed to creating an inclusive, diverse campus community that welcomes and respects all members. Developing academic skills and confidence can be profoundly affected by students' sense of belonging, authority, and agency within their university community.
We intentionally use an equity lens throughout our professional practices. We recognize that students do not all learn identically and that there are multiple ways of knowing; we make efforts to learn about and honour these ways of knowing in our work. We value the contributions of every Queen’s student to academic life.
As a team, we continue to learn how we can do more to recognize, respect, include and empower community members of all identities and lived experiences, and respond to the needs of all students we serve.

SASS is committed to an inclusive, diverse campus community which welcomes and respects all members. The focus of our work is supporting students as they develop their academic skills and confidence. We recognize that this development can be profoundly affected by the degree to which students have a sense of belonging, authority, and agency within their university community.
SASS staff intentionally use an equity lens in our staff hiring and training processes, our online and workshop content development, and our professional practices. We recognize that students do not all learn in the same way, and that there are multiple ways of knowing; we make efforts to learn about and honour these ways of knowing in our work. We value the contributions of all Queen’s students to academic life.
We reject any form of harassment or discrimination, and we work together to identify and challenge systemic barriers that impede inclusion and student success. We understand that many members of the Queen’s community are, and have been, marginalized, and we are doing the difficult work of developing awareness of our own mistakes and our role in oppressive systems. As a team, we continue to learn how we can do more to recognize, respect, include and empower community members of all identities and lived experiences, and sincerely respond to the needs of all students whom we serve.
