Seeking Resurrection
Let this Easter moment renew our resolve to be people of the Resurrection.
Higher Ed Must Defend Freedom of Speech!
If higher education cannot find the courage to defend freedom of speech, what are we even doing here?

Dr. Nicole Betschman, President of the D.C. Public Health Association and Public Health Program Leader at Trinity, points out that Washington D.C. has one of the highest rates of racial health disparities in the country, and that crisis is likely to get worse if common sense health protections like vaccines and fluoride and other health initiatives are eliminated by the new administration.
Don’t Agonize, Organize!
If you don’t like this year’s election results, get involved! Resolve to work for change in the future! Bring your talents to bear on the needs of our communities and neighborhoods. Remember, the most important politics always start in your backyard!

What are the issues at stake for our Democracy in this election? Freedom of Speech, Press, Religion, the Right to Due Process and Equal Protection, and many other rights and freedoms are at stake. Vote for the candidate of your choice, of course, but be informed about the stakes in this election!
Higher Education Is Central for Democracy to Thrive
Higher education is the great counterweight to government in a free society. We must do more to protect and sustain our Democracy.
