We are dedicated to providing vital leadership in the pursuit of a fair and rewarding campus experience for all members of the Longhorn community. We invite you to explore our website, where you will find many tools designed to support a respectful learning and working environment.
The OIE’s focus areas are:
Restorative Justice
The Institute for Restorative Justice offers a spectrum of services rooted in Restorative Practices, including processes that address behavioral concerns pertaining to race, color, religion, national origin, sex, pregnancy, age, disability, citizenship, veteran status, sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression and genetic information. The OIE is a central resource for the university community, offering educational opportunities in implementing Restorative Justice ideologies and practices and navigating identity-centered relationship dynamics through workshops.
Education, Development and Outreach
The Center for Diversity Education serves as a learning hub for diversity, equity, inclusion (DEI) and restorative justice practices. We offer tools to drive accessible and respectful discourse about differences and their implications for relationships. Our objective is to foster a core learning stance toward diversity and inclusion in all organizations within the university and the surrounding Texas community.
Inclusive Campus Support
Inclusive Campus Support provides an online anonymous mechanism for university community members to share their campus climate experiences that are helpful and/or concerning. Peer support is provided through consult without referral (unless required by law or institutional policy) and through sharing university/community resources.
Affirmative Action Program
Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) and Affirmative Action (AA) are foundational components of the university’s work toward ensuring a diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace for its employees. They are also legally required due to the university’s status as a federal contractor. The OIE serves as a resource in supporting the institutional responsibility for implementing EEO and AA across campus.
