ÐÓ°ÉÔ°æ of Nebraska President Ted Carter today issued the following statement on Black History Month:
"Black History Month is an opportunity to celebrate the countless contributions our Black faculty, staff, students and friends have made in advancing the work and mission of the ÐÓ°ÉÔ°æ of Nebraska. Without them, we would not be the impactful, accessible, world-leading university we are today.
"We must also use this time to reflect on the work still ahead in creating a more just and equitable world. I urge all members of the ÐÓ°ÉÔ°æ of Nebraska family to participate in Black History Month events taking place across our campuses. Together we can listen, learn and commit to action toward a better future."
