Senate Chair Duncan Quarless's response to the recent harassment event on the second floor of the New Academic Building:
I would like to offer my kindest regards to our colleagues associated with the academic programs and support services of the Women’s Center, who were recently on the receiving end of a disparaging incident that we hope will lead to a teachable and redemptive moment. We understand that appropriate action has been undertaken to investigate what took place, and to subsequently hold culpable anyone who may have been involved. On behalf of the faculty, we hope that this is an isolated incident, and I would like to offer this as a statement of condemnation for such behavior. And I would ask that all of the campus community – administration, staff, faculty and students join me in this declaration.
Delivered at the Faculty Senate meeting on November 1, 2013.
