Case Study: A.T. Still University achieves a campus-wide culture of inclusion and improved hiring with Vector Solutions' DiversityEdu

Partnership for Change Bringing DiversityEdu to A.T. Still University

A.T. Still University, the world’s first school of osteopathic medicine with campuses in Missouri and Arizona and a reach of 22,000+ students, faced a fragmented approach to diversity and no shared vision when Clinton A. Normore became its first diversity director. To build a common language of inclusion across departments and campuses, A.T. Still turned to Vector Solutions and its DiversityEdu online training platform to provide structured, institution-wide diversity education.

Vector Solutions worked closely with A.T. Still University to roll out DiversityEdu using a “cascade” approach—starting with senior leadership, then faculty—with active collaboration during pre-, during- and post-course phases and iterative feedback. The program created a baseline of knowledge and skills, established a common inclusion language, and led to changes in hiring practices and policies at A.T. Still; Vector Solutions continues to support expansion plans, including facilitator guides and mini-courses.
