Does anyone know what Stanford's status is? Yosem
From: Paula Chakravartty <p...@nyu.edu> As many of you have heard there is increasing pressure to convince the administration to declare NYU a Sanctuary Campus especially given the horrifying events over the weekend and beyond that has already directly affected NYU students, staff and faculty. Here is a link to a letter in support of Sanctuary Status signed by a wide range or centers and campus-based groups and organizations: https://medium.com/@nyusanctuary/dear-president-hamilton-8f2a82879b98#.br5acsczn We have established a student-faculty Sanctuary Working Group that has put together a handout explaining why Sanctuary status is important both symbolically and in practice (i.e. not just a difference over terminology). https://medium.com/@nyusanctuary/establishing-a-sanctuary-campus-at-nyu-an-explainer-3182592f9a68#.sgztfdyux It would be great if there was efforts within MCC and across Steinhardt to take leadership on supporting this call. Several colleagues, graduate and undergraduate students and staff in MCC are involved in these efforts.
