Juilliard has made efforts to diversify its student body and program. In 2001, the conservatory introduced a Jazz Studies Program, which [[Wynton Marsalis]] currently directs.<ref>{{cite web |title=20 Years of Juilliard Jazz |url=https://www.juilliard.edu/news/152466/20-years-juilliard-jazz |website=Juilliard |access-date=January 13, 2023}}</ref><ref name=Ratliff /> The school launched an Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging (EDIB) initiative in 2018, which includes a task force and provides workshops for all faculty and staff. Student Diversity Initiatives provide students forums and activities to educate the community on diversity, internationalism, culture and social justice.<ref>{{cite web |title=Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging |url=https://www.juilliard.edu/school/equity-diversity-inclusion-and-belonging |website=Juilliard |access-date=January 13, 2022}}</ref> In the same year, [[Alicia Graf Mack]], who previously danced with the [[Dance Theatre of Harlem]], became the school's first black dance director.<ref>{{cite web |title="We Got Very Creative": Alicia Graf Mack on Leading Juilliard's Dancers Into a New Era |url=https://www.vanityfair.com/culture/2022/05/alicia-graf-mack-juilliard-dance-four-years |website=VanityFair |date=May 23, 2022 |access-date=January 13, 2023}}</ref> The school has recently invested in funding for minority students and schoolchildren to address inequalities.<ref>{{cite news |title=$50 Million Gift to Juilliard Targets Racial Disparities in Music|newspaper=The New York Times |date=December 16, 2021 |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2021/12/16/arts/music/juilliard-racial-disparities-gift.html |access-date=January 13, 2022 |last1=Hernández |first1=Javier C. }}</ref> However, some have criticized the school's lack of diversity in its faculty and curriculum and focus on primarily [[Western Classical Music]].<ref>{{cite news |title=Juilliard School criticized for lack of diversity and "slavery" workshop: "Those are things that still live in my mind" |url=https://www.cbsnews.com/news/juilliard-school-race-diversity-concerns/ |access-date=April 18, 2023 |agency=CBS News |date=May 26, 2021}}</ref><ref>{{cite magazine |last1=Sutton-Williams |first1=Emma |title=Juilliard Must Modernize, or It Will Disappear |url=https://www.rollingstone.com/pro/music-biz-commentary/juilliard-modernize-classical-music-education-1134208/ |magazine=Rolling Stone |access-date=April 18, 2023 |date=March 8, 2021}}</ref>

In the 1980s, Juilliard students assembled an [[ice hockey]] team called the Fighting Penguins to compete against a faculty team. The naming of the teams became the first usage of the penguin as the school's mascot. Later in the 1980s, the school had several running and racing events and a [[tennis]] team from the 1970s to 1990s. Today, there is a faculty-staff softball team and the student Juilliard Volleyball Club. However, no [[varsity team]]s play for the school.<ref>{{cite web |title=Sports at Juilliard? |url=https://www.juilliard.edu/news/132681/sports-juilliard |website=Juilliard |access-date=January 13, 2023}}</ref>
