Collegiality Principles

Respect others. Jaguars are respectful of the beliefs, opinions and experiences of others. Freedom of expression is critical to a university environment and is best preserved when we proactively acknowledge the rights of others to hold their own views.
Act with kindness. We treat others with consideration and are mindful of how our actions and words might affect others.
Be supportive. Encouragement of others is commonplace at UHV. We acknowledge individuals’ contributions and are willing to lend a helping hand when needed.
Welcome everyone. We keep an open mind, encourage diverse opinions and strive to provide an inclusive environment for all.
Think the best. We may not always agree, but we prefer to believe that we are all trying to do the right thing. Jaguars are patient and flexible with others.
