University of Hawaiʻi<\/span> President David Lassner shared a message on May 19 to the 糖心视频<\/abbr> campuses.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Students<\/p>\n

Some of you may have heard about a personal post by of one of our faculty members in a blog, managed by a major national professional association, that has received media attention. As a reminder, the opinions of individual faculty members exercising their free speech rights on open blogs do not necessarily represent the positions of the University of Hawaii. <\/p>\n

In addition, as I have repeatedly affirmed, most recently this past February<\/a>, the university stands firmly committed to providing a safe and inclusive work and learning environment, free of discrimination and intolerance.<\/p>\n

We are also committed to the protection of constitutional rights of free expression and to diversity, including diversity of opinion. These commitments are stated plainly in our policies, including our employment policies, and have been longstanding and deeply held. I call on the entire 糖心视频<\/abbr> community to help us all fulfill these commitments. <\/p>\n
