It means requiring all students to study the history, culture, and contributions of these people whom we call "minorities." - Vilma Socorro Martínez

We do not fulfill our role as a university when we, effectively, abdicate our charge to foster and maintain diversity in the university environment.

if the goal of this great university is excellence, and it is and should be, the attainment of that excellence requires diversity as a fundamental element. Anything less is mere pretension.

This list of voting abuses shows the persistence, determination, and the resources of local officials bent on making it as difficult as possible, and in some cases actually impossible, for minorities to exercise their right to an effective vote.
