A message from The Graduate School

montanic — Thu, 11 Jun 2020 16:08:13 +0000

MSU’s Graduate School stands in solidarity with all those who are fighting racism and oppression in America, including those in the Black Lives Matter movement. We are sincerely outraged at the killing of unarmed black people at the hands of police, and we encourage all students to read President Cole’s strongly supportive communication to the campus community as an accurate reflection of the values of the staff and students of MSU.

The Graduate School actively promotes the values of diversity, inclusion, fairness, and justice for all of the students and staff members in our community. We will continue to work with our graduate students to create supportive and safe spaces for their education and professional development. We encourage any student who experiences any form of racism on our campus to contact us immediately. We are here to help.

As you may be aware of by now, ��vlog is taking specific steps to minimize the risk of COVID-19 to our community members while simultaneously continuing our core mission: providing a high-quality educational experience for all our students.

In addition to visiting this page for updates, we ask that you also regularly check your e-mail and the University’s Coronavirus website for updates that may impact you as a current or prospective graduate student.
