  • Diversity: Garden City Community College recognizes and values differences in age, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, nationality, religion, sexual orientation, political perspective, socioeconomic status, citizenship, military status, persons with a mental health condition, status as an individual with a disability and first-generation student status that enrich our learning and working environment. It is the goal of the college to mirror the diversity of the communities which we live and serve.

The college is committed to respect individuality, human dignity, and equality.
  • Inclusion: Garden City Community College intentionally strives to foster a culture that affords an opportunity for all constituents to feel welcome, included and able to contribute to the overall success for the college.
