We believe that the UO administration has not done adequate due diligence in adhering to its mission to increase the recruitment and retention of Black students while meeting the needs of current Black students. As a result, the UO administration has contributed to a climate that fosters cultural intolerance and incompetency. For this reason, we, the Black Student Task Force comprised of UO Black Women of Achievement, Black Student Union, are formally DEMANDING that the UO administration, led by President Schill, work with the aforementioned Black student leaders to compose, assemble, and implement a plan that will create a healthy and positive campus climate for Black students.
