Humility 

We work collaboratively with campus and community partners by listening and responding to their expressed needs.  

 

Excellence 

We exhibit professionalism in all our interactions and deliver high quality work to our campus and community partners that is grounded in community engaged scholarship and research.   

 

Creativity
