    Johnson Diversity and Inclusion
    Cornell University was conceived by its founders in 1865 as a university where "any person" could find instruction in "any study." The Johnson School embodies this 141-year-old vision of inclusiveness in several ways:
      The Johnson School was the first top-tier business school to create an office dedicated to increasing diversity and promoting inclusiveness among its student body.

      The school's five-year plan identifies increasing diversity at the school and in the business community as one of its five major objectives

      Pipeline to the 21st Century is the Johnson School's strategy-in-action for making more young people aware of the opportunities for business education and careers.

      The Office of Diversity and Inclusion , staffed by dedicated professionals, exists to execute the school's goals and visions for a more diverse business community nationwide.
    Every year Johnson school conducts various events to promote the culture of diversity. One such event is the Johnson Means Business event. The JMB 2006 event held between Oct 19-22 was a grand success.
