UIC has the tradition of opening the doors of higher education for students from every ethnic/racial group, religion, gender, sexual orientation, physical condition, and age. UIC's tradition of diversity was recognized in the 1999 issue of US News & World Report's "America's Best Colleges" in which UIC was named as one of the most racially diverse colleges in the nation, ranking 6th out of 228 universities. Additionally in 2000, NASPA, the association of university student affairs administrators, named UIC as winner of the Celebrating Diversity Award for the Midwest region.
