Abstract

As much as I love highlighting the good work being conducted at UNM, it pains me to call attention to the ugliness of racism and bigotry on our campus. Recent incidents at some of our dormitories and colleges directed towards African American students, faculty, and staff demand that we focus our attention on our remaining challenges as an institution, and as citizens of our wonderfully diverse state and nation. As a naturalized citizen, as an educator, and as the chief academic officer of UNM, I am saddened and angered that any of us is made to feel unwelcome or unsafe. UNM is no place for such activities and the full resources of the University will be brought to bear on making certain that such incidents are completely eliminated.
