Our University's Commitment to You
Briefly

The university president reassures the community of their commitment to safeguarding the endowment amid concerns about government interference. The president humorously addresses fears regarding the endowment being targeted or questioned by law enforcement. To address these issues, an Endowment Awareness Task Force is being formed to promote dialogue and dispel misconceptions. The president recalls personal experiences with protest and asserts their readiness to protect the endowment vigorously. Through proactive measures, the institution aims to alleviate anxiety and affirm the endowment's stability during challenging times.
I would like to take this opportunity to reassure each and every community member of my deep and unwavering commitment to the safety of our endowment.
The university is taking unprecedented steps to combat government intimidation of our endowment. I am developing an Endowment Awareness Task Force, with the express purpose of starting a dialogue.
In response to these unprecedented circumstances, I have been made aware of troubling instances in which our endowment was stopped and questioned by plainclothes officers.
Let me be clear: No. As your president, I will physically throw myself between federal law enforcement and the New York Stock Exchange.
