Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Center (JEDI)

The Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (JEDI) center fosters an inclusive and equitable environment at Southwestern, in our community, and beyond. We strive to elevate the voices of underrepresented populations of historically marginalized individuals and cultivate a community of belonging.

The purpose of the JEDI Student Organizations is to challenge systems of oppression by the following:

• Educate the greater community on issues of social justice and diversity.
• Create and facilitate a broad and deep awareness and understanding of unique/different experiences.
• Providing an inclusive environment for our members and community where support will be provided for student leaders in the fight for social justice.
• Striving to create a safe place for everyone.

By making a gift to the JEDI Center, you are cultivating a safe space for underrepresented communities, allowing them to florish and Thrive at Southwestern.
