...when, although we were xenophobic, American soil was viewed as nothing short of sacred, impervious and the last bastion of freedom and safety. If we go back to those beliefs, what are the costs? Foregoing diversity is a scary thought. However, there seems to be a pot of gold for all the embracers of the rainbow. Summers has finally and publicly come out for diversity. A recent statement to The Crimson has Summers quoted as not only taking pride in the diversity of our University, but also promising a renewed commitment to the mission of diversification...
