In reading yesterday's "Not by the numbers" editorial, I felt that there was an implied notion that because certain organizations have made a targeted effort to recruit minority students, the quality is somehow compromised. For the past two years, the University Judiciary Committee has made a dedicated effort in its outreach to minority communities because the application rates in the past had not been representative of the entire University. This does not mean that they have been accepting students who are not qualified, as this would be an unfair judgment on both the UJC and on the abilities and talents of minority applicants.

Diversity. What does it mean? What does it mean at the University? Why is it a topic of conversation in every dorm? Why have there been speakers about it at every turn? Why is it important? Is it important?

This past week has demonstrated the powerful impact of words on our community. Thursday, April 15, two of our friends were disrespected and verbally harassed outside of Cohn's on the Corner. The girls, one Caucasian and one Togolese-American, were called the "N word" repeatedly after a comment was made about their multiculturalism. That single word resulted in a lost sense of security, comfort and trust in our University and among its members. Now, we have the opportunity to use our words to move forward and effect change in the culture of this institution.
