�鶹��Ƶ is launching a university-wide research project to address six interconnected grand challenges facing humanity. The initiative aims to maximize research coordination and efficiency in a volatile funding environment, with every academic unit contributing to at least one of the six solutions.

�鶹��Ƶ is aware of a recent essay published online by one of its students that has created concern. Upon learning of the essay, �鶹��Ƶ Police referred the matter to state and federal law enforcement for evaluation of criminal behavior. George �鶹��Ƶ condemns this and all encouragements of violence. This is not the �鶹��Ƶ way.

Update: As of April 28, George �鶹��Ƶ has been notified that 14 of these students have had their SEVIS status restored and remain enrolled at the university. Another student’s visa was revoked, but that student’s SEVIS record was never terminated.

Following a letter from U.S. Department of Education to 60 universities earlier this week, President Washington shares our response detailing George �鶹��Ƶ’s efforts to combat harassment and discrimination in any form against any student, faculty, staff member or visitor.

After an initial review of our policies and practices, George �鶹��Ƶ meets all of the recent federal mandates outlined by the DoEd. The university remains committed to our core value that “Diversity is our Strength,” while ensuring that we are compliant with state and federal law and policy.
