I am proud of the students at the University of Denver (DU) who have created the tumblr in the link above to push back against intolerance and hatefulness. They are laying claim to our university as a space of inclusiveness. Go!

On October 28th at the University of Denver, an extremely hurtful message was written on a mirror within a multicultural floor in a first year residence hall. This message read: “Retards, gays and coloreds go to this school. BEWARE.” In an effort to combat this issue and bring awareness to our entire Pioneer community, the Be(A)ware campaign hopes to highlight and celebrate the incredible diversity on our campus.
