Following the events of Charlottesville, the Presidents of the 15 Community Colleges of Massachusetts have united to voice their opposition to violence, bigotry, racism, and hate.
“We reject, in the strongest possible terms, hateful rhetoric, harmful actions, or attempts to diminish the values or identity of our community members, while remaining committed to the fundamental right of free speech. These actions will not gain a foothold on our campuses. We will provide safe and secure environments for our students, faculty, and staff. We will continue to embrace the diversity that makes our institutions strong,” said the Presidents in their letter.
