The university is committed to diversifying its faculty and staff and has made educational equity one of its highest priorities. The mission of the university is to advance learning and knowledge by linking theory and practice in all disciplines, and to prepare students for lifelong learning, leadership, and careers in a changing, multicultural world.

The English and Modern Languages Department serves more than 400 undergraduate majors with specialized options in Literary Studies, English Education, Applied Language Studies, Spanish, and over 80 graduate students with options in Literature, Rhetoric/Composition, and TESOL.
