Meet Your Community
UB is more than a place to live. It’s a safe, supportive and diverse community where students are encouraged to treat others with dignity at all times.
On this page:
Our Pillars of Community principles are designed to create high-quality learning environments, promote diversity and ensure the health, safety and security of our residents.
A place where students and staff share goals and work together to encourage/promote learning on campus.
A welcoming environment that values a free exchange of ideas requiring mutual respect and consideration.
A place where the individual dignity of the person is honored and where diversity and equality are valued.
A place with clear community standards where individuals are accountable to themselves and to others in their communities.
An environment in which the safety and well-being of each community member is paramount and community members understand and value their interconnectedness.
A place that appreciates the differences, commonalities, traditions and progress of both individual and group accomplishments, and values each person’s contribution to the community.
