Community Values Statement
RIDER UNIVERSITY STATEMENT OF COMMUNITY VALUES
In our endeavor to make Rider University a just community, we commit ourselves, as caring individuals, to the following principles:
- that our rigorous intellectual life nourishes our minds and spirits;
- that no person roams these halls as a stranger;
- that integrity of word and deed forms the foundation of all relationships;
- that we recognize that real leadership is derived from service to others;
- that we celebrate our differences for they are our strength;
- that we are proud of this special place, entrusted to us by past generations, nurtured by us for future ones;
- that we share not one Truth, but respect our common pursuit for understanding
- and through the time we spend here, we are forever joined to each other and to Rider University.
