The turn-out for the mid-term election was strong.\u00a0 The results are in.\u00a0 Some of us supported winning candidates, some of us supported those who lost.\u00a0 Some did not participate.\u00a0 We are all wondering where we go from here.<\/p>\n

The outcomes of the election show many close races across the country and the nearly even split between political opinions.\u00a0 If our country is to come together, we must be willing to agree to disagree. UTC is striving to be a model for discussion and open dialogue.\u00a0 At UTC we celebrate our differences.\u00a0 We must be a safe haven for open expression and a model for others by showing a way for civility.<\/p>\n

Whether the election is viewed as a win or a loss for a political party, it was a win for our country.\u00a0 People participated in our political process, and their voices were heard.\u00a0 Now the hard work begins.<\/p>\n

Now is the time for us to come together as a diverse community, respecting what defines each of us as individuals and what defines us as an institution.\u00a0 Excellence at UTC comes through embracing diversity and inclusion. \u00a0It is at the heart of our strategic plan.<\/p>\n

Beginning in the spring 2019 semester, we will hold a series of events for our campus to come together for discussion and dialogue.\u00a0 We will leverage events already planned along with new experiences to better understand what connects us as people and defines us as individuals.\u00a0 The College of Arts and Sciences, in partnership with the Multicultural Center, will take the lead in developing the content and the approaches to address these important issues. These will be opportunities to share our voices and perspectives and hopefully gain a better appreciation for each other.<\/p>\n

More information will be available after Thanksgiving, and a website will be established for these events sometime before the end of the semester.<\/p>\n

If you would like to be involved in planning these events or if you have events that could be a part of this series, please contact Dr. Michelle Deardorff, Department Head in Political Science and Public Service.\u00a0 You may contact Dr. Deardorff at Michelle-Deardorff@utc.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
