UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH FLORIDA The University of South Florida is one of Florida?s three preeminent state research universities and is America?s fasted-rising university (U.S. News & World Report, 2021). Founded in 1956, USF is a relatively young university with rich traditions and opportunities for students, academic excellence, groundbreaking and innovative research, and service to our communities. USF has earned widespread national recognition for its success in graduating underrepresented minority and limited-income students, at rates equal to or higher than national averages. USF is strongly committed to a culture of equity and inclusion across the institution. These and other core values are captured in the university's five Principles of Community: EXCELLENCE WITH EQUITY We affirm the value of excellence. Our essential pursuit of truth and wisdom depends upon fairness and equity. We recognize that individual and collective excellence entails a responsibility to ensure that every member of our community has the opportunity to succeed. DIVERSITY WITH INCLUSION We affirm the value of diversity, individual dignity, equity, and our common humanity. Diversity of lived experiences, thought, and values enriches our lives and our whole university community. We seek the intentional inclusion of the broadest possible range of these perspectives essential to a university with local, state, national, and global impact. FREEDOM WITH RESPONSIBILITY We affirm the value of academic freedom and the inherent value of people's right to express themselves respectfully, freely, safely, and with civility. We reject the demeaning acts of bullying, violence, prejudice, and discrimination as they undermine the community we aspire to be. DIALOGUE WITH RESPECT We affirm the value of evidence and seek perspectives to foster productive communication, dialogue, and constructive disagreement. We listen respectfully and reject language that demeans any member of the community. We embrace differences by learning through open debate in a spirit of curiosity.

Situated along Florida?s gulf coast, the Tampa Bay area is celebrated for sunshine, mild winters, world-renowned beaches, miles of beautiful bay views, and a diverse food scene. In addition to over 165 parks and beaches, Tampa Bay is home to several museums, theme parks, attractions, and music, art, and cultural festivals, including Busch Gardens, Zoo Tampa at Lowry Park, the Florida Aquarium, the Dali Museum, and the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art. Sports fans cheer for hometown favorites including the three-time Stanley Cup champions the Tampa Bay Lightning (NHL), two-time Super Bowl champions the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (NFL), the Tampa Bay Rays (MLB), and of course our beloved USF Bulls! Our rich culture is thanks to our diverse communities, particularly our thriving Hispanic population both in the city and at USF. With deep Cuban roots, Tampa is nicknamed, ?Cigar City,? as it was once the cigar capital of the world (our Cuban sandwich is pretty famous, too). The Tampa International Airport has ranked best of U.S. airports, and was most recently named in the top 3 by Cond? Nast. Tampa Bay has a vibrant economy, no state income tax, and is 8% below the national average for cost of living. It is home to some of the best healthcare facilities in the U.S., including H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute (located on the USF Tampa campus) and three hospitals ranked as ?America?s Best Hospitals? by U.S. News and World Report. We welcome you and your family to call Tampa Bay home. [cid:image005.png at 01D81682.DC2F8150] -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
