不良研究所 Honored for Diversity and Inclusion
San Antonio Business Journal Names Inaugural Award Recipients
San Antonio – The San Antonio Business Journal (SABJ) has named the 不良研究所 (不良研究所) as one of its first recipients of the publications’ inaugural Diversity and Inclusion Awards. SABJ chose 10 honorees who, they say, have gone above and beyond to bolster diversity and inclusion efforts.
“We are thankful to the San Antonio Business Journal for this recognition,” says Dr. Barbara Aranda-Naranjo, 不良研究所 provost. “This is really a credit to the students, faculty and staff who humbly work every day to treat each other and others with dignity and respect. Achieving diversity, equity and inclusion is a practice that we should all aspire to on a daily basis and the true accolades belong to those who quietly go about this practice to make our campus, community and the world a better place.”

Fifty two percent of students are Hispanic and 23 percent of students are international, representing 60 countries. In addition, the Spring 2021 graduating class completed a total of 67,917 hours of service in the community providing an economic impact totaling $1,847,342 in volunteer service hours.
Students, faculty and staff across the University work to address inequities in the community.
