    “Stony Brook was created to provide access to an excellent education not just a select few but to a growing and diverse population. This was the premise upon which Stony Brook University was founded, and it’s a mission I will be proud to uphold as President.” - @SBUPrez • • • Today’s symposium - Tackling Inequality in Higher Education: Past & Present - brought forward thoughts, ideas and even suggestions on what we can do as a community to work towards a more equitable #HigherEd experience for all. If you missed it, keep an eye out for the #SBUNews story coming soon!
    “…many topics in today’s headlines - sexual violence, racialized police brutality, mass incarceration, racial injustice, and political polarization - all have deep historical roots...” -@SBUPrez • • • Missed this afternoon’s University Senate Inaugural #Lecture: “The Shadow of Slavery in American Public Life”? Stay tuned this week for a write-up on #SBUNews.
    “There’s some things that you do because they’re interesting; there are some things that you do because it’s something you value. It’s profoundly meaningful to have @sbuprez and for it to be the core values of who she is and how she’s leading this university.” -Judi Brown Clarke, referencing President McInnis’ work as a renowned scholar in the cultural history of American art and the colonial and antebellum South. (Her work is focused on the relationship between art and politics in early America - particularly on the politics of slavery.)
    Looking forward to the Inauguration of @SBUPrez this Saturday, 10/23! The Inauguration Opening Reception takes place today with Distinguished Professor of @sbuartofficial Howardena Pindell and the exhibition Dos Mundos: (Re) Constructing Narratives. See you at 2pm @zuccairegallery.
