About
Student Affairs & Inclusive Excellence (SAIE) is the central student life division of the University. We are committed to providing students with the resources, skills and support they need to become empowered citizens who positively impact their communities now and in the future. We do so by challenging students to:
- Reflect on their values and identities
- Recognize their strengths and weaknesses
- Understand the importance of seeking support
- Cultivate their passions
- Foster the public good
Exploring Character

You'll work to intentionally develop knowledge and skills that prepare you to live, work, collaborate, and communicate across differences in background, perspective, and experience. As you develop these skills, you'll also explore and reflect on your own character, and explore the importance of different character traits.
We help facilitate these values of collaboration and reflection by providing extensive opportunities for engagement between diverse groups of students. These opportunities range from large-scale events like the Cultural Center's Diversity Summit to small-group events put on by the many affinity groups we support. In addition, we are always working to support and strengthen our campus-wide atmosphere of openness and inclusion.
Promoting Well-Being

During your time at DU, we work to ensure you have the opportunity to learn the skills and behaviors that will help you achieve and maintain social, emotional, physical, financial, and spiritual wellness. We believe these skills are of equal importance to your intellectual development and can help ensure you're able to thrive and make a positive impact here at the University and throughout the rest of your life.
That means ensuring that our support services are run with intentionality and empower you to grow with every interaction. Whether it's building coping skills through our Health & Counseling Center or strengthening your abilities as a teammate and leader as part of a club sports team, we'll make sure you're able to flourish personally in college and beyond.
