Hi, me again with another post-forum post:

It’s awesome (AWESOME) that the SCU administration has engaged in the dialogue Unity 4 started last spring. It’s awesome how much they have listened and how much thought they have put into this student effort. (Note, I’m not saying that I’m necessarily happy or content with the progress or responses.)

HOWEVER, I’d just like to reiterate that as students of Santa Clara University and citizens of the world, it is also OUR responsibility to engage in the dialogue too. Not enough students showed up to the forum and not enough students SHOW UP, period. We all have to care about creating an inclusive environment. We all must have compassion, competence, and conscience (ring a bell?)–not just the students who are affected by racial injustice and not just the students who are “required” to go.
