Subject: Re: [cs-ugrads] An inclusiveness discussion
This essay from the Southern Poverty Law Center – “Ten Ways to Fight
Hate” – was recommended the other day on a campus faculty email list:

Many members of the CSE community – particularly women, non-citizens,
and LGBQ individuals, but others as well – are unsettled as a
consequence of last week’s election.
On Monday at 5 p.m. we’ll have a discussion in the Gates Commons. This
will *not* be a political rant. Rather, it will be a conversation
regarding additional steps that we can take to ensure that CSE remains
an inclusive community, welcoming to all.
If you have ideas – or if you simply want to spend an hour with others
who share your concerns – please join us.
