About Our “Negating Hate” Digital Quilt
Just as the squares of a quilt are sewn together to form one unified object, the squares of our digital quilt form Millersville University’s unified stance against hate and toward diversity and inclusion.
“Millersville University will not tolerate hate in any form. Our goal is to foster a community characterized by diversity in all of its beauty – race and ethnicity, gender and sexual expression, culture, spirituality, and impairment challenges - where all are included, respected and valued. Only by eliminating all manner of discrimination can we fully ensure that every student is successful and receives an opportunity to achieve academic excellence. Let’s work together so that Millersville University is recognized as a safe and compassionate community where all are welcome.” —Daniel A. Wubah, Ph.D., President
