Implementing Religious Freedom on Campus: The Case for Colored Stars – MohrWords

Leadership, diversity, and higher education. Implementing Religious Freedom on Campus: The Case for Colored Stars. March 8, 2014. March 8, 2014.

Maybe if we could pass such laws at the federal level that would be helpful in giving all public colleges and universities the ability to defend religious freedom for students and employees. Now t...

Leadership, diversity, and higher education. Marriage Equality: One Small Marker for Liberation. June 27, 2015. With the recent Supreme Court decision, I am celebrating marriage equality like so many other people across the country. It is a journey in the United States that started with two University of Minnesota students applying for a marriage license in 1970. Their application was rejected and the courts rejected their legal arguments. Today, we have marriage equality. LGBTQ youth are still at a high...

Harper, my one thousand year old dog, died last night. My heart is very broken. By the time you read this, the shell of her body will have transformed: heat and light, vapor and smoke, ash and wind, then wide open sky. I miss her. Oh, you guys. I miss her.
