Stop the Hate' campaign beginning in December

Committee members are encouraging the community to wear purple Friday, Dec. 3, in support of the “Stop the Hate: Make it Better for Everyone” campaign. The committee will distribute information and purple stickers in the Student Center and other points on campus Dec. 1-3.

Kara Vogt, who leads the diversity committee, said the campaign is aimed at fighting hate and promoting tolerance toward people with differing opinions, practices, race, nationality and other characteristics.

Committee members are encouraging people to visit the following websites for more information: Southern Poverty Law Center, www.splcenter.org; Anti-Defamation League, www.adl.org; Partners Against Hate, www.partnersagainsthate.com.
