Letter to students
Dear Rider Students,
We, the professors of Rider PUSH BACK, support a shared commitment to building a community of mutual caring, respect, diversity, and integrity. Further, we condemn homophobia, racism, sexism, hatred, bigotry, and violence in all forms.
We look forward to teaching you, and we are eager to learn from you. We are committed to maintaining learning spaces that are free from fear, discrimination, and harassment. And we are committed to creating a University where all individuals can learn and thrive.
We are here for you, and we support you.
Sincerely,
Rider PUSH BACK
