“Inclusion respects the wide range of human qualities and attributes that make up a college community (Diversity) and allows individuals to flourish within an environment of fairness

and respect (Equity)”

We serve a regionally diverse population (students from urban centres, small towns, rural and northern communities) but a relatively ethnically homogenous population compared to the Ontario college system:

4% international students 3% immigrant students (plus 13% who are first

generation Canadian, with 1 or both parents born outside Canada)

6% members of racialized communities (visible minority)

8% Aboriginal students 28% from towns, 20% from rural areas (declining)35% First Generation PSE
