*Please note the following clarification: All students are expected to be respectful of other students and staff, including while engaging in academic debates that concern views held by other students or staff.*

This vision is based firmly on our core values:

• Equality, diversity and inclusion
• Social and environmental justice
• Respect for academic freedom

It is also informed by three aspirational values that guide everything we do:

Excellence, Creativity and Impact.
