Eleventh,
we will enhance our profile as a values-based institution,
emphasizing long-held university commitments to such
values as human rights and dignity, social justice, environmental
protection, diversity, and individual freedom.
We
will promote linkages of academic inquiry to service opportunities
locally and around the world for faculty, staff, and students.
I am urging the faculty to expand academic offerings to
include more specific ethical issues in connection with
all fields of inquiry. Diversity will continue to be a hallmark
of the institution in its makeup and its concerns.
