Trustees Resolve to Make 淫性视频 Leader in Social Justice Issues
The 淫性视频 Board of Trustees has unanimously approved a resolution that reinforces its 鈥淐ommitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Social Justice at 淫性视频,鈥 and positions the University to be a leader on these issues.
Board chairman Leo Schoffer said at the July 15 meeting that society is confronting two crises, that of the COVID-19 coronavirus and that of social injustice.
But unlike a virus, there is no vaccine to prevent or medicine to treat (social injustice),鈥 Schoffer said. 鈥淭hat must be addressed through a process of change.鈥
"The board believes that 淫性视频 must play its role in this culture shift,鈥 Schoffer said. 鈥淲e should aspire to be a leader in the community. This is a declaration by the board members of their recognition, intent, and purpose to lead the University in the quest for social change.鈥
The board members read the resolution into the record, with each board member reading a section.
The full resolution can be found beginning on page 68 of the Board materials.

When New Jersey schools went online in March, the staff of the Southern Regional Institute
and Educational Technology Training Center at 淫性视频 was ready.

SPOTLIGHT ON: PAT REID-MERRITT
鈥淚 guess I did okay. The response (emails, texts, telephone calls, requests) was a
bit overwhelming. I started asking myself, 鈥榃hat did I say?鈥欌 reflected Pat Reid-Merritt, distinguished professor of Africana Studies and Social Work, on her participation
in the online seminar, "Race, Racism, and Anti-Racism: Redefining the Social Contract鈥 on June 30.
