In the spring of 2016, a group of Penn State students looked to engage differently. They created a video of Penn Staters speaking honestly about their personal experiences with diversity. From there, All In at Penn State: A Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion or All In was born. All In is a grassroots initiative focused on the University's core commitment to respectfully listen to different perspectives; to peacefully practice civil discourse; and to accept, support, and value one another, regardless of our differences. All In is a partnership with Penn State students, our President, the Office of the Vice Provost for Educational Equity, Penn State Outreach and Online Education, Student Affairs, and WPSU.
