These values are: (1) Excellence and impact: demonstrating leadership in pursuit of our vision and mission (2) Diversity and innovation: welcoming difference and making connections among people and ideas (3) Inclusion and equity: upholding equal rights and advancing institutional fairness (4) Care and compassion: attending to the well-being of individuals and communities (5) Integrity and respect: acting responsibly and being accountable Our shared values support principles of open-minded exploration and freedom of expression, respectful and inclusive community, and caring relationships built on trust through honesty, transparency, and authentic engagement. Additional information can be found at www.osu.edu/shared-values. (B) As members of the Ohio state university community, we strive to embody these shared values through our actions and conduct.
