Abstract

Let me begin this weeks communiqué by welcoming you back from Spring Break. I hope it provided a refreshing recess from your important work, a recess which will prepare us for the challenges still ahead. Civility in the Face of Hate: Please visit President Frank's blog at http://president.unm.edu/blog/2013/03 /civil-campus-not-a-place-for-bias-and-hate.html to engage in the dialogue about civility and to condemn the recent manifestation of hate and bigotry on campus. To quote from President Frank's 3.8.2013 posting: 'A university is the ideal place for the complex issues we face in today's world to be discussed and debated. A university has the power to overcome cowardly expressions of bias and hate, and the ways in which we express ourselves are just as important [as] the positions we defend\u2026. I hope we can all pledge to stand for the values of diversity, civility and respect in our engagement with one another.''
