CAPITAL TIMES, September 12, 1990 LETTER FROM PSU's PRESIDENT lUNLI J AAaiI .n ajuLLCII II. I .II. Miwd As I begin to develop a deeper understanding of the University, I am pleased to see that it is a diverse community. Diversity runs both broad and deep within the fabric of Penn State. Yet there is much more we need to do to ensure that all of us take full advantage of the diversity that is here and to create a community that will make it welcoming place for everyone. In reviewing the past ten years at Penn State, it is apparent that progress was made here in terms of increased numbers of minorities. But we are all also keenly aware of the many frustrations that can accompany efforts to diversify a University as complex and comprehensive as Penn State. We have an opportunity, working together, to make the 1990's a decade to remember as a time when Penn State gathered its substantial resources--students, faculty, staff, alumni and friends--to work for the common goal of establishing a substantially more diverse institution. For Penn State to continue its momentum toward the ranks of the very best universities in the nation, the University must reflect the diversity of society at large. To fulfill our responsibility to the citizens of the Commonwealth, of the nation and of the rapidly emerging global village, this institution must have a broad and unobscured vision. Two years ago few could have foreseen the fundamental and historic changes that are occurring around the world today. An adequate education is not one that simply prepares students to live in today's world. The education of the 1990's must provide students with the tools to live in a quickly changing future. The ability to adapt to change is perhaps the most fundamental attribute we can instill in today's youth. I can think of no better preparation for the future than for our young people to learn to find value in the differences among us, to appreciate the diverse backgrounds we all bring to this institution, and to help others fmd value in that diversity. For our students to realize that vision, the University's faculty, staff, and administration have a responsibility to lead the way. I stand in those ranks and ask you to join with me. Sincerely, Toab Thomas ATTENTION STUDENTS, FACULTY STAFF: The fine for parking in a handicapped or temporarily disabled space has been increased to $l5.
