The Women’s Forum:
Women Faculty and Administrators

Vision: Our vision is two fold: 1) to promote and sustain a healthy and stimulating working environment in which the contributions and needs of women are fully acknowledged and fully rewarded, and 2) to promote collegiality across all schools of the university.

Mission: Our mission is consistent with the Mission and Statement of Diversity of Wake Forest University as published in the 2003-2004 Fact Book. http://www.wfu.edu/administration/ir/factbook-2003-2004/index.html 

Essential Values

DIVERSITY – supporting and fostering an environment that enhances cross-cultural awareness and protects the dignity of all women, regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, or physical ability.

INTEGRITY – demonstrating fairness, honesty, sincerity, and a commitment to consistent adherence to our mission, vision, and values.

MENTORSHIP – encouraging the open exchange of ideas and facilitating the growth and advancement of individuals.

Guiding Principles We hold ourselves accountable for incorporating our mission, vision, and values into all operational processes, decision making, partnerships, and actions of our association and the university.

We are committed to enhancing the overall well-being of women.
