As proud alumni and friends of DePauw University, we would like to make the following statement:
- We unequivocally and enthusiastically support all people of color at DePauw. In light of the recent campus tensions, we ask that all students, faculty, and administrators do everything in their power to make DePauw a place where all are truly made to feel welcome.
- We support the administration's plan to have a Day of Inclusion at DePauw and encourage all students to attend. Everyone can benefit from having a candid conversation about race in America and from learning about people with different ethnic and racial backgrounds.
It's no secret that race continues to be a divisive issue in America, and only be coming together and truly hearing each other can we begin to heal the wounds that still affect so many of us.
Signed,
Anika Moore
