I am heartened by this message, which sets an important tone and provides some excellent guidance as we continue to navigate a changing landscape.

Diversity of thought, belief and community is a pillar of our strategic plan. Regardless of immigration or DACA status, the vice chancellors and I will continue to dedicate resources to ensure the safety and well-being of every member of the Appalachian Community.

Sincerely,

/s/ Sheri N. Everts

Sheri N. Everts
Chancellor
