LETTER: Celebrate Black History Month at IU

As part of Indiana University’s commitment to create environments in which all students, faculty, and staff feel welcomed, the university is proud to honor the backgrounds and identities of the members of IU’s community through heritage month celebrations. Through programming and other means of support, IU’s Office of the Vice President for Diversity, Equity, and Multicultural Affairs (OVPDEMA) endorses: Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month (April), LGBT Pride Month (June), Hispanic-Latino Heritage Month (September), LGBT History Month (October), and Native American Heritage Month (November). And of course, February is Black History Month. When it comes to the heritage months, I believe that as a community, IU should be curious about learning more about all cultures throughout the year — not just for a month at a time.

LETTER: Celebrating LGBT History Month and Disability Employment Awareness Month

When people think of the Office of the Vice President for Diversity, Equity, and Multicultural Affairs (OVPDEMA), there’s a tendency to focus on diversity as it relates to race and ethnicity on Indiana University’s campuses.

LETTER: A third path

The two-party system has continued to drag us down.

LETTER: Think positively about this election

LETTER: The case for political accountability

LETTER: Comments aside, Trump is the best choice

Donald Trump has said terrible things, but none of them would ruin our economy or destroy our country as the election of Hillary Clinton would.

LETTER: The consequences of 'backlash slogans'

When it comes to 'backlash slogans' we need to be reminded of diction's significance, the real message and the consequences.
