The President of Slippery Rock University is among a national group seeking to eliminate discrimination and racism.
Dr. William Behre is one of 15 university presidents and chancellors who are members of the New Presidents Academy sponsored by the American Association of State Colleges and Universities.
Inspired by a Black Lives Matter video created by several NFL players, the group has produced a video in which they commit to a unified effort to help eliminate systemic racism and promote social justice.
Recent actions the university has taken to foster diversity on campus include the hiring of Terrence Mitchell as a special assistant to the president for diversity and inclusion as well as launching an anti-racism and social justice resources webpage.
