Diversity
The Wildcat Powwow
Wearing feathered and beaded regalia, Native Americans from tribes across North America met on Bear Down Field to compete in the UA Wildcat Powwow. Elders and young children alike danced the traditional jingle dances, grass dances and gourd dances. The student-run event is a chance to showcase the richness of Native culture on campus.

Diversity in Action:
Many Perspectives. One University.

We are able to provide our students these skills that are crucial for today’s global marketplace, because we are one University enriched by many perspectives to achieve excellence in our teaching, research, and service.
