The DePaulia
Rebecca Meluch, News Editor|March 31, 2021
On March 31, DePaul University’s Office of the President sent out an email to DePaul faculty, staff and students entitled “Statement Against Hate” and “Here, We Stand Together.”
The email quotes a message from St. Vincent de Paul followed by “Love and hate cannot coexist, so there is no room for hate here.”
The statement, signed by 31 top DePaul administrators, including DePaul President A. Gabriel Esteban and interim Provost Salma Ghanem, also condemns racism and violence.
“We support all who are part of our university community,” it reads. “We affirm that hate has no home here.”
