As Heller School Alumni, we stand in solidarity with students occupying Brandeis administrative offices. We support the students’ demands and we call on Brandeis University President Lisa Lynch to set forth a plan incorporating the protesters' specific proposals to achieve greater racial equity and inclusion at Brandeis University.
Why is this important?
Brandeis University faces a critical emergency of racial inequity that requires immediate and concrete action for greater diversity and inclusion for students, staff, and faculty of color. Past mechanisms have not brought the reforms needed. We join our voices to the protesters and urge the University to act for racial equity by implementing a plan that incorporates the concrete measures called for.
