Inclusive Language Guide

Language is a way of communicating, acknowledging and validating identities, ideas, concerns, requests and culture. Inclusive language communicates our values. We choose to represent our values and ideals at Florida International University as inclusive, respectful, and kind.

You are encouraged to use oral or written language that is welcoming to and affirming of everyone’s race, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, class, religion, ability or disability, health status, or veteran status.

The use of inclusive and welcoming oral and written language is the standard for all our departmental documents, correspondences, marketing materials, academic coursework materials, presentations, conversations, lectures, syllabi, as well as written and oral student assessment materials.
