    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
