As an institute of education, we have the responsibility to model our highest values for our students—a principle one being our commitment to welcoming, supporting, listening to and lifting up people from all backgrounds.
We would like to thank you for your courage and tenacity. The first-person narratives show how much further we have to go to create a culture of respect for one another so all can feel and be safe at DU. The stories shared by DU community members are abhorrent and unacceptable. You have our promise that not only do we hear you, but we are committed to making progress on each one of your requests to help this campus become a better place. We can do better, and we will.
