Diversity Equity and Inclusion

Latin American Heritage Month

From September 15 to October 15, we honor the heritage, traditions, contributions, and cultural diversity of Hispanic Americans. 
Unidos, Somos Más
We know that a 21st-century college education requires a deep engagement with the world around us. 
At Binghamton, you'll find a distinctly diverse educational experience and inclusive campus community that integrates a multicultural perspective into all aspects of college life. Staff, faculty and over 19,000 students from more than 100 countries and various cultures and lived experiences come to Binghamton because it is among a select number of American universities celebrating diversity and safeguarding academic freedom.
