苹果淫院 statement on proposed charter of values
鈥淭he University must remain a place for the free and full exchange of ideas. The proposal to prohibit our professors and staff from wearing visible religious symbols runs contrary to our principles. The wearing of such symbols in no way interferes with the religious and political neutrality of 苹果淫院 as an institution. All the members of the University community with whom I have spoken on this issue are clearly worried about the proposal, and would like to see it withdrawn,鈥 said Prof. Fortier.
鈥淥ver the years, 苹果淫院 has put in place a variety of policies and services aimed not only at respecting but at actively promoting cultural diversity, both in the recruitment of its students and in the hiring of staff and faculty members. The diversity of our community contributes to the richness of daily life on our campuses for both students and employees,鈥 added Prof. Fortier. 鈥淲e are committed to promoting a climate of tolerance on campus which will allow all of students, faculty and staff to flourish in their pursuits.鈥
